If you're having this problem and using an iPhone/iPad.. Go into your mailbox settings and set "mail days to synch: no limit". I believe the stock setting is only a week or two, so it hides all the old stuff by default.

New base award announced. I'm just not getting this. 12 FO's moved to IAD, another 30 new-hires were assigned it. Coupled with 17 leaving for DFW, that's still a net gain of 25 to Dulles, which I thought was sufficiently staffed.

As for Phoenix, I thought Standing Bid indicated one permanent spot would open there. Additionally, 11 FO's left Phoenix for other domiciles. So, wouldn't they need 12 people to move there? Only one guy was assigned it... What am I missing?

I just finished IOE. Still don't know where I'm going. No one in our 8/7/14 class has been awarded.

It shrank. Don't think of standing bids as "permanent positions". As for IAD, the line structure changes a bit every month. That's why they always have people on tdy.

That's just a real bummer. Could've used good news today. I know every other pilot has been in this position and an extra month or two isn't a big deal in the scheme of things. Still, it gets expensive having two places and always paying for fast food, I've noticed crashpads always attract one loud snorer per night, and it's no fun being away from loved ones for months at a time.

What caused Phoenix to shrink? Less LA flying?

What a whiner...what, have you been at mesa like a month or what? I think you're reading way too much into this stuff.

What's the upgrade at now, like a year and a half?

I know it's big news to get, and you'd probably rather not get it off a message board. But, looks like every new-hire is assigned IAD "upon release from training."

It's been a rough day for personal and now professional reasons. I'm not here to throw a pity party, I just wanted to ask if anyone could explain the discrepancy. Navmode was kind enough to. Thanks for your concern.
