If you are converting from an understaffed base to an overstaffed base, is it worth calling the AE folks to see if they will slip the conversion month right a little? Or is it hard and fast contractual stuff and they have to keep you in the month that was posted?
Thanks

They move them as needed so you can always ask. They have to stay in seniority order within training groupings.

Actually from what i've heard it (rudder and ailerons plus spoiler 3 on opposite wing) assists but not all the way so that the pilot could be in the loop and feel important!

It never hurts to ask - I was switching bases some years ago and wanted to stay in my old base an extra month. Being winter time, and staffing not tight they let me stay. They did say it was easier to hold off the conversion a month than move it forward, because of seniority - I wasn't jumping ahead of anyone, in fact, I was letting more junior people go before me.

Any help appreciated: I followed the instructions per ALPA jump seat page for listing on American-myidtravel.com/maidlisting. I put in the username and password that the ALPA site lists (the generic password it lists). It won't recognize me.. What am I missing?

Ok Thanks, that is different than the site I went to, but it won't populate Delta Air Lines in the "employing airline" blank. iPhone safari issue maybe?
