Junior 737 Captain award is GUM....DOH 1989. :eek:

Wow. Those who upgraded after 10/10 will be static for a long time.

Not showing that on the snapshot, looks like EWR 737 10/25/2005 ...GUM is 9/13/2005...the most junior awarded L-Ual based on vacancy in GUM is 12/21/92

Management, could be ground or sim instructors..note the SUP

Maybe, maybe not, doesn't really matter with PBS as the lines are the same from 80 or above the G-line -20% anyways..static or not, pay's the same...plus with the retirements over the next 5 years, there will be plenty of flex and slop. The old staffing 'rules' still apply regardless of the new monthly vancancy/displacement scenarios: it's harder to get shoved out of a seat than awarded into one. That's purely from a financial company standpoint.

I am talking about awards based on vacancies on this snapshot. EWR 737 CAP has no vacancies, thus no awards (and the snapshot has no backfills or secondaries). GUM's junior award for 737 CAP is indeed 12/92 (seniority #4532)....which is the junior 737 CAP award on this snapshot.

Most Junior award from snapshot....cut and paste from another forum....

There are over 400 757/767 pilots in ORD. All of them (in both seats) can hold 737 Captain in ORD. When they park all the 757's, where do you think those 300 pilots will go (there will be some left flying the 767)? Let's say that 100 of them bid 737 Captain in ORD. There are currently only 112 Captain positions...

There will be bumps. The junior CAL captains will have to pick another seat.

Yes, it will be expensive.

It's cheaper for the company to have an overstaffed base rather than to bump CA's out of a seat, especially with expected retirements and growth.

The crappy UAL aircraft will be phased out slowly and allow for retirements and growth to minimize the effect of the demise of the old and decrepit planes UAL brought to the merger.

Reserve CA has actually been pretty good, pay and quality of life is pretty good. I and many of my contemporaries would not care if we sit reserve, it might be better than having a line in some cases.

The next option for us, if we were to get bumped, is to bid 787 FO where they're making as much as 737 CA with more days off due to the understaffed situation on that aircraft, I believe the fence will even make it harder on the company since you will have to find CAL pilots willing to commute or move to the liberal, high taxed communist state of California....
