Yep. Hoping I can hang onto the base until 2017 when the "pilot shortage" arrives :p

I think between the 12 month conversion window. More DC9 displacements imminent, more -90's on the way, and no hiring next year there are probably a fair amount on this award that are not done moving yet even before they ever go to training especially for those low on the totem pole.

It probably depends on each situation. Which aircraft your getting displaced from/going to, how senior you are, what happened to others in your category, etc .

I saw you on there. Wondering the same thing myself :D

Looks like quite a few behind you though. If you can hold a line, then maybe not such a bad deal. If I get bumped into commuting on the next bid, I may seriously consider NYC for the relative seniority bump.

No. You stay in ATL. :D

That was a given with the merger based on the demographics of where pilots lived. It will be a few more years before it settles out.

commuting is a choice, right?

We need UALs bases. Not UCAL, UAL.

I'd be in DC or DEN as soon as I could hold it.

Actually we need a MCO base.
