Me too. Here's to 18 months back on reserve!

Don't stress too much! Word around the camp fire is another position notice in the first quarter 2013. Hopefully they will un-freeze everyone again!

They also do us a disservice by not letting us bid by percentage-in-category. If we were able to do that, the prelims wouldn't be very necessary to begin with.

Maybe that'll be in the JCBA....

...Nahhhh.

Sure glad I stayed on the -200. What appeared to be a drastic seniority windfall if I moved to the 7/9 may be a wash after the backfill.

If they do, I'll probably go back over to the 200. Based on The recent JetStream, I think it would be better for the next year or so.

It looks like 44 people upgraded. That's good news. Could it be better? Of course, but it is still good news!

It looks like 7 long time FO's upgraded. The number 1 FO on the 700 (25 year seniority, or something) decided to finally upgrade. We will see some more movement soon.
