Delta's next AE

[cargoflyr69]

Anyone with solid intel wanna place a bet on the next AE date?

Do you trust the Crew Resources memo about having an AE every 30-45 days from here going forward?

What's an AE? Sounds medical .. Not good ..??

Late January/early February as mentioned in recent Crew Resources monthly update. Will be some 7ER F/O positions most likely for ATL. I've heard they will be posted every 60 days. Last one was DEC 2.

Newbies incur a 1 year equip lock? What about after that? If trg is going full throttle, how often can one bid into new equip?

2 year seat lock any time you have to go through training unless you are being displaced. There are some exceptions, like 767 to 767-400 is only 9 months, I think.

That is true, 9 month seat hold, due to the 765 (767-400) needing 3 sims I believe if you already completed 757/767 training. Other entitlements from different plane type to another incurs a 2 year seat hold. Getting displaced incurs no seat hold. You can also bid base to base on the same equipment anytime there is a bid and an opening available.

The shorter seat locks are negotiated and only because they are in the PWA.

And because of this won't they have to be posting AEs just about every new-hire class? I thought they had to offer any vacancies to seniority list pilots first before new-hires. If this is the case, there will have to be an AE posted just about everytime they run a new-hire class, right? Unless they post something like 200 ATLM88B vacancies knowing they will not have bidders for it. Then all new-hires go there?

Thoughts?

I believe that is correct. New bids for current pilots and the leftovers go to new hires.

What is the general consensus as to where new hires will be placed this year in regards to base/fleet?
