Default Vacancy bid?

Any ideas when we might see a new vacancy bid?

As others have said next month. I'm sure they want to evaluate where the displacements go before they drop a bid as those number will have some effect on staffing levels.

SSC rep on the UALpilot forum mentioned a lot of bids coming from June on due to all the new aircraft we're receiving before summer '17 flying.

Howard's weekly fireside chat yesterday said the same thing.

I've heard approximately 150, 777 Capt bids...The training center is furiously training new 777 instructors at the moment. So there might be some truth to it.

Where there is smoke there is fire. 14 777-300ERs in a six month period is a pretty aggressive delivery schedule on the widebody side of the airline.

That seems very aggressive. Can Boeing even deliver on that schedule?
