Looks like May is just as bad! Now down to only 5 FOs on reserve system wide. Another month of premium pay for open FO trips?

Ask piedmont says there will be a new permanent bid (finally) that will come out first week of May to be affective June 1st. So we got that going for us.

They updated the seniority list on the website

Looks like we are at 190 total FO's down from 201 only 2 weeks ago. (Half of those are upgrades that have passed)

We have 177 active FO's down from 185 only 2 weeks ago.

We have 414 total pilots down from 419. So we only lost 5 pilots in 2 weeks.

Finally, we remain with 386 active pilots just as we did 2 weeks ago.

Per the latest FIL, the SATCOMs will be activated in a few aircraft. On these tail-numbers we will no longer have to call the times.

So when do these wonderful little machines start counting block times? When does the clock start?

FIL says that when the main cabin door is closed and the A/C moves 50'. Which is great in CLT and LGA with the push back cluster!

Which is efff'd up considering we were told to call in 'door close' time (as per our daily).
