They better have a Dukes in PEK! Looks like that’s the open time special on that fleet lately.
Anyone have any insight on who goes to training first with such a huge vacancy like the 777 SFO FO? I know the memo said June could be the earliest. So for someone like me that might bid it but has vacation in August, I’m apprehensive about rolling the dice and hoping for training to come later vs sooner.

Hahaha! Is this in reference to a certain 320 EWR captain? The problem with this "favorite captain" is that he is no ones fav by any means. I like how he keeps trying to convince himself that he is though. His stand up PA's are the most awful thing I've experienced in my 20 years of aviation.

A ton of backfilling lots of people are going to be very happy with the outcome of this vacancy bid.
WB FO is trending a lot more senior than I expected and CA is trending more junior than I expected.

Just curious - how's your seniority now fare with SFO 787 vs 777? I looked at those that have bid on/off of SFO 787 and I'm guessing that your percentage is close on both fleets - you may be a bit better on the 787.

The real bummer is the pilots right on the G-Line for the 787. A lot of current RSV 787 pilots bid out and off and everyone that bid on is lineholder seniority. IF the snap shot was the award there would be a lot of junior 787 FOs pushed back into RSV for the first time in several years. If I was close to the G line I’d be looking for other options after today.
