With the expansion in Seattle, what's the latest guess on how long it would take to bid it once hired?

Probably within the first year if you have it as your only standing bid with no qualifiers. However, you will be junior there for awhile.

Will be a lot easier to hold 73N from LAX.

Seattle is not only a popular base, but you're talking being able to hold widebody international flying. Right now, I'd guess 5 to 10 years. But, things can change quickly if we actually grow. Staffing for new A330's could open up some slots middle to late next year. But, the Company's plan is to entice 767 International bubbas into these and other "upgrades" rather than have to displace them as our 757 fleet begins renewal with 737-900's.

LAX should be where the junior West Coast action is.

Current junior SEA pilot is 2001 hire date. Keep in mind there is a 2001-2007 hiring gap. At one point the junior person was an 07.

Are you sure? I think the current junior pilot projected in SEA is a 1999 hire ... that's 14 years!

here is the actual mmpi

Is this the no $hit identical psych test that you take on day two? Can anyone who has interviewed confirm this?

Thanks.

Could be, but I don't remember my smart alec response question ...

after day two, the Cognitive Test, the Medical and 400 or so MMPI questions with a #2 pencil they asked .... "I feel like I'm always being tested?" I answered YES, because they didn't have a "OH HELL YES"

Might be a merger thing ... and I don't want to touch that.

SEA 330 is by far the most junior 330. SEA 7ER was held by late 2007 possibly 2008 up until the latest round of displacements.
