UAL has announced a 21 Aug recall class of approximately 20. They are currently anticipating recall classes in Sep and Oct. After those recall classes, plans are to continue recalling in early 2007.
The 21 Aug recall class was all 737s; based out of IAD and (mostly) ORD.
Bob Neal, who is handling recalls at UAL, sent out 56 recall letters. That puts the junior man to receive a recall letter at approximately seniority #8020, hired on 4/3/00. There are a total of 8915 pilots on the June 2005 seniority list (due to be updated soon).
Based on historic data, it will likely take around 100 recalls to get 20 in class. If the Sep and Oct classes have the same number of recall slots, my best guess is that the junior man recalled in Oct will be around seniority #8264, a 6/18/00 hire.
As UAL gets deeper into the recalls, I'd expect an increased percentage of bypasses. This will probably be offset to a degree by previous bypassers accepting recall.
