Default 23 Aug class - who else is in?

I got the invite last week. CJO was 14 Apr, Sandra told me to expect a July or August class when I got the phone call.

Anybody else in?

Based strictly on the "unfilled vacancies" from previous equipment bids I'd suggest that EWR and SFO are safe bets.

I'd be willing to bet DCA, as well.

There is a vacancy bid open right now that closes on the 1st of August. They post "snapshots" that show the results as they would be if the bid were to close now. The snapshot is based on the current bids in the computer from active pilots and also based on the minimum required "backfilling" of positions vacated during the bid. (ie 737 fo bids to 777 fo and they fill the 737 fo slot the pilot left)

As of the snapshot today this vacancy would have the following unfilled vacancies. If these hold true these could be used for the August class.

DCA 737 FO 34 unfilled
EWR 320 FO 1 unfilled
EWR 737 FO 46 unfilled
EWR 756 FO 21 unfilled
LAX 737 FO 25 unfilled
SFO 737 FO 91 unfilled
SFO 756 FO 19 unfilled

The vacancy bid that closed in June also had the following unfilled vacancies that would also be eligible for use in the August class.

DCA 737 FO 6 unfilled
EWR 320 FO 3 unfilled
EWR 737 FO 56 unfilled
EWR 756 FO 6 unfilled
LAX 737 FO 21 unfilled
SFO 737 FO 74 unfilled
SFO 320 FO 6 unfilled
SFO 756 FO 2 unfilled

So, those represent what could be given out. Based on the total numbers, EWR and SFO look like the most likely followed by LAX and DCA. With mostly 737s, but maybe some 756 slots as well.

I don't think it works like that. Whatever is unfilled in the latest snapshot are the real time vacancies. In other words: it's not June's unfilled PLUS August's unfilled that reflect current vacancies. Whatever is shown unfilled in the latest published document (snapshot or final) are the sum total of all vacancies left unfilled.
