Was thinking along the same lines... Maybe not sold yet but going up for sale... " We have freshly refurbished planes and look at our qualified pilot group! Today only Ill make you a good deal!". VPC prob sees the headaches ahead and just wants out... Just speculation but with such an odd request and no explaination. Speculation's all we got!

Put in your bids for CA now if you have the quals. Then you have something to argue when you file the grievance for promoting out of seniority order.

If there was bypass pay to come out again, you really think anyone not within the inner union circle will see that cash.... the last time it happened a lot of people received very little, or nothing, then followed up with an email telling us not to complain.
