They are still training new Captains on the 75, so not sure I believe that one yet. 4 training slots in April on the current ITU bid. You’d think they’d stop that before displacing but then again that would make too much sense!

If you read Section 24 carefully, especially in the context of realigning folks out of planes like the MD or Bus, the whole thing would make sense(if true in the first place). We tend to look at the idea of shrinking a category especially given current BLG’s, but the company doesn’t really need a displacement to get folks out of the 757 on a bid-it’s the most junior aircraft in the system. Think about it in terms of available options for folks realigned from other seats and it’s clearer.

Received de-identified email from mgt type this week. Reads...
The first bid would reduce the MD11 by about 30 - 40 crews and the MEM B757 by approximately 30 - 40 Captains. I doubt you would be able to bid out of XXX on this bid. The second bid would address any shortages that were left from the first bid.
Best regards,
