Yes, FAR changes were one big factor butCAL has historically been chronically understaffed, in all fleets except the 777. System bid looks a year out, so the numbers, in a perfect world means everyone in their seats by Feb 2014. That never happens. 13-08 is a current example. Just the shear numbers of the 14-02, understaffing leading into the summer, retirements, JCBA, Upcoming FAR changes, delayed hiring, lack of sims and instructors and domino effect of 787 battery parking, made it less than zero chance that the CAL side alone could fill all those FO vacancies on the 737 and 756. It was not executable and I think most CAL guys would tell you that.

UAL Furloughed transplant, hired CAL March 2013 equivalent seniority of February 2012. DOH means nothing these days, you have to go by equivalent seniority. Hope this helps.

Actually it does. If I know how junior the SFO Captain bid went I know whether or not he is junior to me now since I don't have the names.

But I just got the answer....7/12/05. Junior to me.
