Didn't consider the displacement possibility. I think you are right. The most junior LUAL 737 CA I could find via vac bid was around 6180 The most junior LUAL A320 CA is 6366. The most junior LUAL Ca system wide at ISL was 6593.

Be careful NavyCal, my experience here at LUAL for the last some odd 28 years has been our pilot group(former LUAL), as a whole, has been decidedly left of Karl Marx. A conservative voice in the crowd was always shouted down with inappropriate epitaphs and threats of physical violence. I speak from personal experience. After 8 years or so on the old Compuserve/ALPA forum, I left in disgust. At least on this board, liberal thugs don't gang up on a conservative voice.
With regard to Moveon.org, lets not forget that one of the wealthiest Left-wing anti-american 1 percenters, George Soros, has bank-rolled their operation.

The most junior LUAL Captain on the merger date was an Airbus Captain in IAD who ended up over 7,000 on the ISL and wasn't sitting in that seat because he had been displaced post merger. There were a few including Airbus Captains in LAX and SFO, either close to 7,000 or over it.

I was one of them out of LAX. I don't remember what my seniority number was back then though.

I'll bet a months pay there are either none, or less than 50 737 or A320 Capt vacancies in the next year., We are parking over 70 75's in the next year, and taking only 24 uberGuppies to replace them. That, and from 2010 to 2013 about 700 pilot's worth of block hours were transferred from U side to the C side.

In the next year there will be 700-1200 lUAL pilots displaced off the 76T fleet. Maybe a bit more. Because of the really junior lCal captains in all the bases, it will allow the vast majority (over 80%) of even the FO's in those bases to displace to the left seat if they want it.

24 Guppies in the next year requires 130-140 Captains. Not the 850 as another poster wrote. Even with 100 retirements off the 73, there is no scenario where we get anywhere near that number.

Some of those pilots will displace to wide bodies, which should reduce even the vacancies on those fleets, minus Sparky because of the fence.

I think everyone is going to be surprised how few vacancies will be available in the next 12-18 months. Shocked might be a better term.

A conservative voice being threatened with violence by a crowd of airline pilots? That's about as believable as Rosie O'Donnell and Mullah Omar sharing a cup of tea...

Yep.............

IMPOSSIBLE! I've read right here on APC that here will be no bumps.;)

I'm guessing you've never been on the old Compuserve/ALPA forum. The moderators did nothing to stop the runaway liberal thuggery or thought police.

Same core group of iceholes who run roughshod over the membership over at UAL forums. There are about 3 or 4 primary big mouths who do the majority of it.
