Literally shocked.

Many senior people didn’t bid it thinking it’d go very senior still. The next bid should be interesting to see.
Shotgun upgrade’s all in one base and one airframe to bring down upgrade times.
Interesting PR strategy.

The company announced 30 open positions for CA then awarded 85!!
- sign of more planes? Why do we now have 225 ER7 CAs? 225/5= 45. That’s right, with this bid we are now preparing to staff 20 additional airframes. This is basically the big announcement!!
- no backfill was awarded with this bid. The company is now in the position of having to put out a 19-06 bid ASAP. 19-05 created around 80 CA vacancies. Combined with the vacancies due to attrition there should be well over 100 ERJ CA vacancies.
- with this many openings, the next CA awards will drop very close to the 18 month/1000 hr mark.
- while your buddies are still on reserve at SKW or END, you will be close to CA upgrade at XJT!!

Interesting
Saw one FO that held a CA upgrade on the 145 but was awarded ER7 CA so they won't go to the 145 upgrade now.
I know they came from the CRJ and can't have more than a few hundred on the 145 before they do 7 upgrade.
That's a steeper hill, but not as steep as the one that is going from 145 FO to ER7 CA...maybe they have prior CA time...
More power to ya and best wishes, but I'd be hesitant about changing seats AND airplanes.
