Any man or woman who would like to read a great aviation book, read Aviatrix, first woman pilot at Hughes Airlines.

So what the deal with the IAH re-bid? Another few days before the results are released?

IAH re-bid? I thought its closure was a sure thing?

In terms of upgrade/transfer bidding, I know it's close to process the awards, but, when does it open back up?

Could a new hire FO on the CRJ be upgraded to the LHS in less than 2.5 years if he/she had over 1400 hours turbine SIC in part 121 ops from a previous airline?

Has there been any precedences for such in the recent past?

We haven't done any of that yet to my knowledge.
I don't think we would be in a position that we need to hire DEC for a while. I would be interested to hear what others say though.

Generally speaking, people are not getting bypassed for upgrade due to lack of time. There are exceptions, @ElMetal upgraded one month earlier because a guy ahead of him didn't have the time but that was an exceptional case (Leave of absence kind of situation).

It is possible, how likely is another question. Our upgrade time is 2.5 years right now, I think it'll drop to two but it's hard to say what the future holds.
