All of them I am friends with are actively making attempts to get out.

So interestingly, I looked at the very first E175 bid packet and I noticed there are only 16 active pilots bidding for lines, plus 4 management pilots. There's a huge number listed as ULA, including the top-of-the-list ASA pilots. So it seems like a lot have left or retired.
Maybe they're not yet qualified? But then they probably wouldn't be listed as ULA, they'd be paid off-line.

I don’t really care, either. I’m merely pointing out that there are a lot of lifers at ASA, and the XJT guys who USED TO BE lifers.....are trying very hard not to be. I’m ecstatic to not be there anymore, and I’m sure you’re much happier where you are. When all is said and done, I still stand by my original comment. The last month I was there, all I saw were unfamiliar faces with lots of seniority and very little know-how. If things play out as they have every step of this merge, those guys won’t assimilate one bit. They will make it ASA, and the newer guys will adapt. That’s fine. I don’t care. Just an observation.
