Just went to make sure my staffing bid was right since it closes tonight... noticed that they added some options "XXX SF3 CA" and "XXX SF3 FO". Pretty sure those weren't there when it first opened... last time this happened was right before IAD bases opened. Anyone willing to play base roulette?

Legit guesses:
Means floaters to cover displacements
LWB
PIB
MCO

Rumor causing ridiculous guesses:
IAH
MSP or DTW to do tiny towns in mn or Michigan
ABQ, the southwest is under served, just waiting for a plane with no apu.

Hey did ya'll hear the new rumor? We're going to be opening a new base in _______ (location). The 1900s and SAABs aren't up for the job so we'll be getting _______ (aircraft) to cover the flying. Apparently we have a codeshare agreement with ________ (airline) to do the new flying as they desperately need Silver to carry their passengers to and from _______ (another location). I hear the demand for new pilots is going to be so steep we're going to be hiring another _______ (number) pilots! Looks like all new hires should be able to upgrade in a mere ______ (another number) weeks! It sure is an exciting time to be a Silver employee...Go Silver!

Best response gets a beer from me on our next exotic overnight!

We're not growing, there are no new bases, no new aircraft types, no new markets. Everything will be the same. They need to concentrate on what's going on presently and make it more successful. Primary source information from the Silver management tour 2013. If you're here hoping for upgrades or more flying get your apps out now.
