I like your style.

Perfect plan Walrus! . Seriously though, I will use your line.

Of course I do. And, my previous post didnt come out quite they way I meant. As far as "talk about stuff", I meant bring up contract or Union issues or other related things to gauge their mindset.

And of course, no dinner.

Default 5%?

When can we start bidding with 5% instead of 10% intervals?

You can't tell a nm by what he wears. One notorious guy on the 777 wears an ALPA lanyard, KB. Even wore the "contract now" one during negotiations. He's not the only one. We all know who the other big offender is.

I'm creating a lanyard that says, "End the pension for the 55+. Where's my 18% B Fund?"

I have a question about how the training for Bid 16-01 will be handled. Once this bid closes, will those individuals moving to new aircraft and positions be placed at the end of the current training letter or based on seniority, be merged? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

This bid will train after the last bid, accept if your name is on both bids (you won't train twice). But there are usually some shenanigans.

For the POP experts:

If a current MEM 757FO is awarded MEM 767FO at 100%, with the expected training date of spring '17, and a newhire is placed in a MEM 767FO seat before spring '17, would that trigger POP? (Somehow I feel it's not as simple as this). Thanks.
