Lost the SLI? Tell that to the UAL 1998 hire that just went junior to a CAL 2005 hire.
Yes because you guys wanted to staple that guy along with 3,000 others. The modified UAL method was chosen over the staple job. Overall a win. Correction JP lost. |

I have to disagree. You are looking at the UAL world through the rose-colored l-CAL glasses you have subsisted in the last 3 years. There is no system growth at UAL. There is shrinkage. Pilots don't all retire off the 777 and 400. Many retire off narrow bodies, and a not insignificant number will retire as wide body FO's. I think the displacements will more than make up for the retirements for a while. 6 months to a year. The few vacancy bids will be on wide body captain, and 737 bases that the company plans on growing quickly. I do believe one or two 737 bases will end up with WAY too many Captains. DEN probably being the biggest as many UAL pilots will bump there. 400 retirements a year/12,000 pilots is only 3.3%. This year there are only about 300 planned retirements. 2.5% this year. |
OK, humor isn't allowed here for a while. Back to the previous discussion.
How did you like all those openings on the Vacancy bid yesterday? Couldn't resist. I wonder how Bid 14-02D affected the number of vacancies on Bid 14-02 released yesterday? Bid 14-02D closed on 16 Sept. Does anyone want to share their award on Bid 14-02D? Previous award and new displacement award? Since Bid 14-02D is being talked about as a "Bid", is the company ever going to publish the results of Bid 14-02D in one posting? Or are they just going to notify the individual pilots who received and award via CCS message? |

Wrong. All the growth the last 3 years was UAL growth. It was in ORD, DEN, LAX, and SFO. CAL didn't bring any growth. They just stole it from the UAL side.

757/767 pilots from the old Ual side should not bid off the airplane. They will have far more latitude in picking and choosing the positions they could hold with their seniority thru a bump. Just saying and Good Luck!

Just saw the wish list and I think a lot of guys will be bidding. I think a lot West coast and ORD guys will jump on the CAP777IAH and Displaced JFK and IAD guys will jump on the CAP777EWR. Plenty of Narrow body bids to go around. Good Luck - 3 years has been a long time.

The Sled is in the 80% in DEN,IAH,SFO. 70% LAX, and 50% ORD :eek: 737 Cap. Too bad I won't be holding any of these this time around. Oh well. Maybe i'll just bide my time as a 10% 737 FO DEN. Decisions. Decisions.
