Take a look in CWA at the system wide FO open time awards this past weekend and you'll quickly see that rumor is confirmed. Out of base POT to very junior bidders, JAs and VPFs galore in the right seat. And it's just getting started.

I just can’t see any of them being around for more than 10 years. My gut feeling is that there will be more MAXes ordered fo accelerate their retirement. Also, let’s not forget the other kicker…..the inevitable acquisition of another airline. Most likely in my humble opinion another airline with a lot of newer Airbuses and a fat order book for even more of them. Unless you mean F9, by all means go ahead :) |
I keep hearing about the training backlog of ExTO's coming bac, but I'm curious what the reality is at the schoolhouse. In my completely unscientific method (picking random recalls and looking at their boards) I haven't seen a single example of a June recall not going to training next month. I'm scheduled to come back in July and am crossing my fingers that training scheduling won't find a place for me until towards the end of the month...but I'm also prepared to celebrate the 4th at the Rodeo Goat.

They just moved almost 300 pilots from July training to September.

I’ve been moved up every year since I was hired. Did CQT in August last year. I won’t complain at all if they push me back to Sept or Oct. |

300 of the ExTO or regular guys? It's weird to push regular guys 2 months as that might make some unqualified. I still say Jan for ExTO recalls
