If they put out a bid for 500+, I'll be shocked and I think that would:

1. Requiring planning a year ahead, yeah right.

2. Lock them into an aggressive plan, yeah right.

Even if they plan (right now) to hire 500+, I doubt they put that in the August bid.

Again, my opinion.
Agreed completely. I hate the idea of a yearly bid but supplementals are allowed.

What are the chances of getting LGB out of training in June? I know it’s an impossible question, but someone may have some insight.

At this point Long Beach is shrinking or stagnant block hour wise as JB just gave up several slots.

This is literally the WORST choice of a "major" for someone who lives out west.

Various sources. Seniority list, there's a fellow on BP who posts stats on folks leaving and for where (if known). Just had a buddy in recurrent share some of it with me as well. (I go myself in a few months, will see how the numbers compare then.) And then there's the numbers posted here on APC (actual class drops, for example)

Just curious...Do we have access to a seniority list calculator through our ALPA site or on the intranet?

You seem to know much more than a line pilot...
