Yeah, but instead of making the problem worse, it is actually helping you

Anyone have any wild speculation as to when NYC Airbus is gonna start dropping? Almost been a year long drought.

whispers says this spring (thanks Googles) MOAB will have 160 320-B spots...no idea of which bases but I assume a bunch to LAX to coincide with shutdown of LAX 717.

I will say over the last year when the NYC 320B grew by over 100 spots, the NYC 737 went from 180 to 115, hence the current tsunami of spots to new hires.

Edit: summer to spring

Top Men say this year’s MOAB will be MAR/APR, not summer. FWIW.

That is usually the case in the hands of an inexperienced Airbus pilot. With some experience and systems knowledge, there is always an answer. Sadly our training doesn't provide the level of systems knowledge needed and self-study beyond the mins is required.

Initially? How about this, you cover this initial hit with your money and then the rest of us will join in. Sound ok?
After the initial wounds heal.... what a joke. That money that is lost from not being paid back....comes from thin air right? My other favorite....it should be forgiven.
Maybe if we just print more money to make up for it right?
Just where do you think "the banks money" comes from?...that you suggest doesn't need to be paid back.

I think it's gonna be a while before the NYC or ATL 320B get new hires. Those two categories have been heavy for a while. A lot of displacements also went to those two places and I think the company took them on as overages to prevent waterfall displacements. You may even see the same thing on the next bid with the 88 displacements.

It all depends on how this year's MOAB shakes out.
