Thanks for the reply.

Is that due to COvID or some other underlying reason?

Fake news!

Last system bid showed its being downsized via attrition. Once it’s gets below their staffing numbers, it should have openings. Company likely wants 26.W to have ended as well, but that’s purely my thought.

Completely false. The company benefits on many levels by having a pilot base in HKG/Asia. The fact that they continue to pay HKG pilots housing allowance, $250 per night for hotels in SFO, AND living expenses more than 6 months into a temporary relocation speaks to the fact that they don’t want it to go away. They will mitigate issues whilst Covid restrictions are in effect, but as soon as HKG shows signs of relaxing quarantines (which may be a while), they will want pilots back in HKG.

appreciate the responses

you’re dreaming if you think we’re ever sending folks back there.

The Company guy from scheduling, when asked directly about a new APAC base, said that the company is "looking and examining all options" but that the four natural choices were going back to Guangzhou, Clark, Inchon and KIX.

Now, the reality is about 30 seconds of analysis suggests the positives and negatives of each. Frankly, I suspect it will be Clark, and ever 55+ year old guy is going to bid it to relive his glory days until he finds that life in the RP is a young or retired guy's game, and we aren't a bunch of Navy Chiefs with family hookups.

An APAC base makes lots of sense. The question is one of location. Even ANC makes more sense that double DHs into theater. Of course, that's why ANC -11s is shrinking, but I don't second guess the mavens in Memphis.

Anyone have today’s drop?

Expecting only one class in Nov & one in Dec. The rumors are that the Nov class will be down to 20 people.

Am I reading this correctly that two folks selected Cologne CAPTAIN as new hires??
