Best one yet!!:D

Just sayin....

Does this mean reinstatement positions are not reflected on the AE as openings? The displacements were off the 767 and 737, and I don't see any reinstatements to the 737 and no ATL 767 or ER.

Really?

The fall ones are always bigger. That is not rocket science. We always to the Lion's Share of our training in what our leadership refers to as the "Shoulder Months."

A reinstatement means that if a position is vacated your rights go prior to an AE for that vacated position. The would not be reflected because the total amount of reinstatements depends on the displacements off of the CVG ER, where and who bids what senior to you.

Just curious. Why does the conversion window start in June...........? Isn't the earliest someone could be converted from this bid July?

When you're disappointed about your displacement, ACL comes down and gives you hope. He's like Moses for those of us who's career turned into a 40 year trek through the desert. Hey, at least he tells stories about the promised land of widebody flying, crew meals, hiring and airplanes where all the buttons and levers actually do what they say they'll do :)

PWA 22-12.

12. A pilot who holds an MD will, without regard to the standing bids of senior pilots, be
reinstated to the category from which he was displaced if:
a. a vacancy is posted in such category and the earliest conversion date stated in the
posting is within the 180 day period following the conversion date of his MD,
b. his standing bid indicates a request for such reinstatement, and
c. such vacancy has not been filled by reinstatement of a pilot senior to him who was
also awarded an MD from such category

Yep ...

Just disappointed they didn't fill back in the 100 slots they talked about.
