Here's a question... if a category does not have a vacancy, can someone bid a new category and move directly into it via the AE even if they are not being displaced? I know a VD or MD will generate movement, but could someone be like "Eh... I'm sick of (insert airplane here) so its time to try
(insert airplane here) and get it, even if they would not have been displaced and there were no new openings?

Some positions may open (i.e. 737) as guys move. However, they mentioned that they were not going to backfill the 777, 7ER, or 767.

Bar Thank you!

Its been there for awhile. I think there were some guys having a difficult transition going from the Airbus to the Boeing, at least that was the scuttlebutt when they published the guide.

It's been rumored for a while that the CVG 73N will move to DTW.

Wonder what the transition from the 320/330 to the DC-9 would look like.
