Can someone please tell me how this works? I know a new hire that made it threw CRJ school only to get booted to the 340 in IAD. He has a standing bid in and the 340 is the last on the list. He missed the Q by a few #s the last go around . How can a new hire come in and get a A/C that someone with a higher # wants?

My best guess is that it has to do with the company opting not to fill as many secondary vacancies as they could have due to the size and complexity of this bid, and having to do it by hand.

Thanks, that helps me understand.

Section 24.C.3.: 3. First Officers a. A First Officer may bid and be awarded a change of Domicile at any time. b. A First Officer may not be awarded a change in Category (status and/or equipment) until: i. Upgrade to Captain; or ii. One (1) year after date of hire, to attain another First Officer position. c. Following an award to a different aircraft as a First Officer, the Pilot may not be awarded a Captain position for twelve (12) months or a new First Officer category for twenty-four (24) months. d. A Pilot subject to a First Officer freeze will be released from such freeze to prevent the hiring of a Captain off the street |

I'm assuming that the company is treating the new hire as not actually being displaced due to the fact that they were awarded their initial position without all senior pilots getting a chance to bid on the position they were in training for. The result of vacancy 11-08 was that their class should have started as a Saab class. As they do not have displacement reinstatement rights, they are subject to the training freeze for a new first officer of 1 year.

Unless he gets real lucky and takes a voluntary displacement

Looks like everyone is on the Saab. Any training gouge out there?

The electrical system was designed by drunken apes? Not sure if they'll accept that on the oral though.
Unless things have changed, you should get a packet in the mail letting you know what to bring for class, and it should have some limitations for the Saab. Know those cold, everything else they'll give you in class. Welcome aboard! |
