We will see how many folks change their bids last minute, but currently looks like roughly five years to be the plug.

63.1% overall seniority, right in the typical range.

Junior 74 SDF - about same as above
Junior Bus - May 17
Junior 75 domestic - Feb 17
Junior Z - Jan 17

*These are awards from latest bid. In most cases they represent the most junior person on fleet post bid but I haven’t verified...

Im still learning the lingo and what impact certain things have, so bear with me. I assume “vacancies” are spots that the company needs filled? The system bid created new vacancies (F/O and Capt) due to pilots changing bases, fleets, and seats. So, while some of these vacancies will need to be filled within by F/Os upgrading and pilots changing bases (or some via new hires), but not all of these vacancies will need to be filled by new hires, correct?

All these positions are vacancies to be filled by newhires.
