From the April SSC Report

Vacancy Bid 17-10V for DCA 787, New Categories
With conclusion of Phase 1 of the NPDM, the company has announced the opening of new Categories (DCA 787 CA and DCA 787 FO) with an initial Vacancy Bid for 20 Captains and 45 First Officers.

The SSC anticipates future coverage in the fall will require increasing the staffing need to approximately 30 Captains and 70 First Officer Regular Lines, plus Reserves. At current Reserve levels this would result in an approximate total of 36 Captains and 84 First Officers in DCA 787. This staffing would be to cover DCA 787 flying on these routes: IAD-PEK, IAD-GRU, IAD-LHR, and IAD-CDG from November on.

This Vacancy opened April 18th and Closes April 28th, the Effective date is the October Bid Period (Sept 29th) Training may start as early as July. As flying on the 787 already exists lines could be built as soon as pilots are activated.

Freezes are released for New Category Vacancy bidding for 6 Months from the first Effective Date for pilots with an 8-D-1 Equipment Training Freeze. That is to say, pilots who are currently on an 8-D-1 Equipment Training Freeze are still eligible to bid into these new Categories regardless of their freeze. Pilots currently on an 8-D-2 Bidding Freeze, however, are not eligible to bid into these Categories as the language that allows for release from that freeze is for new Bases only. (There’s already a Base at DCA so the New Base provisions do not apply).

 

Ah, yes, the mystical Shares. The only thing I know how to do with the "Shares" page is type "2", space and the flight number. Can you shed light on what else can be done there? Typing in my employee number doesn't work like you describe...or perhaps I'm mildly retarded, which is possible.

 

In shares you have to type JA-xxxxxx with the "Xs" being the employee number. No spaces and leave out the "u"

 

Final is out.

Disappointed by the lack of backfills......

 

I was hoping for more as well, but I guess with the summer staffing being set and IAH 787 and SFO 747 displacements yet to come, they can wait and see where all the displacements go before filling in any holes.

 

Hopefully the lack of backfills will lead to a MOAB in the fall.

3 More 787s coming, the rest of the 77W coming, 737 MAXs start in the spring, 326 retirements from today to next summer and I don't think anything but the 747s are scheduled to get parked.

 

that was a quick turnaround by the company for the final; glad to see 21 senior 777 DCA FOs moving over to the 787...

 

But a long time Denver fleet qual double scab is leaving for the Dulles Scab Cab. So there's that! Good riddance MB. He's gone in Aug anyway.

 

DCA will give him the welcome he deserves.
