APC is showing 207 Captain vacancies in SWA's LAS domicile. I'm assuming this is the total # of Captains projected for LAS? Same # of FO's? I was wondering if there was going to be a gradual build up of the domicile. Being a newbie to the business, I'm really not sure.

The bid award just came out for LAS. They have enough FOs, but a little short on Captains. WHo knows what they are going to do now.

I don't, but maybe I should. The latest I heard is that PD is looking at pool dates of around 10 May for their last class in Sep. My pool date is 25 May.

Wow...I really thought LAS would go junior for FOs. Wonder what bases (besides OAK) that will open up.

Sorry, was a little sleepy when I posted that. What I ment was is that they are pulling 200 fo's and 160 or so Captains. Wonder why the reduction in Captains this first round?
