That's 23% of this company that won't be taking a slot in a new hire class at a major. High time folks that would bump you down in the stack, aren't even in the stack

Correct, 1 FAA (or Secret Service) would bump even a company line check then 2 the line check pilot (only if actually doing a line check, and those typically are listed days in advance) would get priority then a company pilot is 3rd on the list, but it's pretty rare to run across 1 or 2

Still no vacancy or base announcement. Sigh.

They've said "mid-February" so knowing this airline's typical pace, I'm guessing somewhere from the 20th-25th of the month is a realistic guess.

Anyone willing to help me with a question about filing taxes (probably not, I know)? If so, send me a PM.

Hope everyone is enjoying the snow. I need to commute in tomorrow to LGA and all 12 flights today on Delta today were cancelled from my home in DC today so the loads are a little tough tomorrow. I know it 2 missed flights before there is a PS but do they have to arrive within a certain time before check in, Im sitting p3 tomorrow. The first flight that isnt oversold is at 1pm...
