Just want to point out that management doesn’t need big bids in order to financially plan the next 17 months.

September business update says they are evaluating having an additional bid this year to meet pilot hiring needs. Rumor mill wasn’t wrong

An industry leading contract would solve the pilot staffing issue guaranteed.

Agree. But that was the union's response to what the company told them as to why we can't have monthly bids.

We don't have a pilot staffing issue. Just planning from management.
