Two questions:

1. Were any/many Delta South pilots awarded a Captain slot on the Diesel 9?

2. Which base for either Delta or NWA saw the most change (i.e., huge number of NWA pilots bid ATL or LAX or huge number of Delta pilots bid A320 SLC)?

anyone else notice that the NYCER catagory increased in size? I held onto it, 91 guys senior to me moved out and 155 guys moved in....which puts me around 502, as of yesterday there was only around 478 in category...???

Maybe beefing up the ER NYC in anticipation of moving some of those seats to SEA or PDX this summer???

 

[PeanuckleCRJ]

ATL 737 for me... woo hoo!

Wouldn't have minded staying on the 76...but this will do for sure. Happy New Year all.

MSPM88B for me... It may be weird to hold a line for change!

There're 8 D-south guys (of 66 total AE awarded) in SLC320B, 34 of the original SLCM88B MDed to the new SLC320B category.

10 D-south AE on SLC320A, and 44 original SLCM88A MDed to the new SLC320A category. (I didn't check what the spread is on SLC320A AE)

PS: Dear crew planning, please make this new category somewhat commutable, and please, no 5 day trips.

Looks like it's year-round reserve for me in the NYC ERB. Could be worse. As they say in NYC ... mehhh!:erm:

When and where can we find a list now of where you're at in your aircraft seniority? I'm remaining an MSP DC9 FO but can't find where I'm at on the list relative to everyone else.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

I know of one ATL88A that VDed a MEM9A slot.

Go on deltanet

Go to Crew Resources and Scheduling

Look on the far right side under Category Lists


They should post a projected list soon based on this bid award.

 

[andyd]

you can do it the hard way and go through the Feb 2010 category list and the AE award line by line, add and subtract all the guys senior to you and you'll come up with your new pecking order. Took me an hour this morning, I'm not the plug on the NY ER but close at 502...still wondering why they increased the seats on it...perhaps preparing for some of those seats to move west???

Good for u guys. I am an early 2000 hire and been trying to get off the 88B for every single bid since the Nov 2007 bid where I bid "regular only" and didn't get the 88A or 777B because of my "regular only" greediness. (would have gotten them on reserve)

Couldn't even get 73N B.

When is the next AE bid?

 

[ACL65PILOT]

MAY/JUNE time frame.

Looks like the admitted that there will be new hires this Aug/Spet/Oct time frame in the Lounge visit that just happened in ATL.

As we stated.

I saw another 777FO bid DC9CA, that should be a bit of a change LMAO

BTW a buddy of mine got called TONIGHT at 830PM ET and was told he would be going to class JAN 28th they arent wasting any time! He said the lady told him they started calling people almost immediately and that he was the last one she had to call tonight but had to be back in the morning to start calling again. The training center is going to be busy, especially the Bus.

Awesome, this is a stupid question but any idea how many new hires?

The more the merrier! Good news to offset all these displacements

 

[Monster Buck]

I know it has been said but the the training order is ae, vd then md correct?

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Correct Buck. All AE's first the VD's and then MD's. My bet is that I got to school in less than two months I am already studying.

Call me a pessimist. I am not so sure they are in and making calls on January 1, though I did get an e-mail returned from a crew resources person on January 1.

Not sure where new hires would go....

 

[Helos2Galaxy]

If we were about to hire, the January 1 code-a-phone from the VP of Flight Ops would have mentioned it. It did not.

We won't be hiring thefirst part of the year for sure. There's no room in the training department as we go converting people for this bid through June.

CP at yesterday's ATL chat said there will likely be hiring later in the year, though...

 

[Superpilot92]

I'm 100% positive they were calling people on Jan. 1st and they are also making calls today on a Saturday (the 2nd).
