No more LOS
No more LOS.....Now IAH 787 is going to be even more massively overstaffed.
So IAH 756 is overstaffed in both seats. IAH 737 CA is overstaffed and IAH 787 FO is way overstaffed. Going to be interesting to see how they plan to fix this.

The 787 FO seat is way out of whack after the Guppy displacements. Now I can't see them avoiding a displacement. There are already 40 reserves everyday and that's with Lagos. IAH already has the DEN-NRT forced in. Maybe they could build some W trips.
Going to be interesting in IAH for a while.

2 Options IMHO. Displacements or more forced flying.

I went to the "reports" tool on the CCS website to look at staffing in various airplanes and seats. Is there a way to sort it by "retirement date."
That may give folks an idea as to when their fleet type and seat may be more properly staffed or with their quality of life will improve.
I think we need more retirements to fix the over-staffing issue. The displacements have caused quite a problem.

This pilot does some great work in keeping this site up to date. I especially like to see all the "never"s on the Junior Pilot Report that shows when I can (can't) hold a particular seat.

Just some facts that support the idea of no bumps.
1) May crew resources update: "IAH: We expect an increase in staffing of approximately 15 percent on each seat, due to additional flying in this hub. This will allow us to open more captain positions and continue to reduce overstaffing on the first officer seat."
2) IAH maintenance base: They need to keep the aircraft flowing in and out.
3) Training: They can not afford to lose bodies. With the fleet still growing and the training capacity shrinking during the training device relocations to DEN they will be limited on adding new 787 pilots.
4) Asset cost: Poor utilization on our highest costing asset in the enterprise will not happen. They will find a new location to send these airplanes.
