Minimum of one displacement after this one if not two. DCA 777 FO (the min number in that BES is not artificial), LAX 777 both seats, LAX 787 both seats, SFO 787 both seats, and IAH 777 both seats.
If we displace off of the 756 in any domicile other than IAH that would be a bad signal not even MOP could ignore.

Put down the crack pipe. The guppy is not carrying the 777.
30 yr pilot should have more OPTIONS on how they want to work now than a 12 yr pilot. That is exactly what the current system provides. They can chose more pay or more QOL. Even a combination of both.
Bigger/faster = more pay. It's the most basic of concepts.
If they box isn't broken you don't need to fix it.
Is your name Leonard or Jeff?????? If you're really a 787 CA I'm guessing your an 83-85 hire.

Never forget the Company is equally guilty of trying to steal those union jobs. There wouldn't be any scabs if the Company didn't want them

Many of us 30 year plus pilots had multiple chances to scab and most of us didn't bit. My seniority puts me behind sUA 89 hires that weren't even qualified to be Airline pilots when the scab opportunities were there. No, I'm not a scab. An early 87 hire, started with the Striking pilots after the Order and Award.
These days those that talk about scabs the most, more than likely never had the opportunity to scab. We will never Know what they would have done had they been offered the chance.

Yup, are we all not trying to hold on to our seats? Some of us have been around for a lot longer than others, and have seen have fast the money losing airplanes can disappear in a heartbeat.
Oscar made an interesting comment in the Pacific a few weaks ago. "We have way more International Widebody airplanes than we have profitable wide body routes, and not enough domestic airplanes for all the profitable domestic flying." He doesn't see that changing in the very near future. Way too much competition from foreign carriers.
We need to follow the money, not the airplane.

Easy money is great. But remember, domestically we still have a huge RJ problem boogering up our brand, our brand loyalty, and the quality and reliability of our product. SWA and Jet Blue don't appear to be waiving the surrender flag domestically, so put your big boy pull ups on and get to work Oscar.
And, oh yeah, Kirby; you need to figure out how to get some B-757's back. Huge mistake to park em. The aircraft flies a great mission for us and the 737 nor the airbus seem to be matching their lift capability, especially on longer routes and heavier routes.
