Funny thing, I realized I knew that guy and sent him a congratulatory text on getting based back home. He was out flying so he didn't even know yet.

Haha, funny. I texted him and he told me you had already told him.

No, I used to flight instruct with him in Mesa.

How likely is it to get displaced out of PHX from the more senior pilots upon the closing of ORD?

Re displacements out of PHX due to ORD closing. Possible, but keep in mind PHX is finally growing again, so doubtful. The next base to get resized/shrink will be CLT.

And all of the above will literally cut you if you don't know exactly what you want to order when it's your turn in line at the Subway by the D-gates.

Keep in mind the projected vacancy numbers are almost never exact, and it's a very dynamic process. Senior FOs moving around can create more or less slots to backfill in diff domiciles, the company changes their staffing requirements in diff bases around up until the minute they process the awards.

Hope that further clarifies the process!
