Yup, 18 mos post single certificate even without a list

Yeah, I don't see that. I'm thinking first quarter 2017 at the earliest for any real changes. We'll see, I could be wrong.

The flight ops update and the flight standards update said February 1 for the effective date of the October bid. They have gone to great lengths to say that we will be able to mix crews on OCT 1st. I don't think this will get delayed at all. The base exchange program run by the APA (same seat/equip/catagory) will be effective Oct 1 as well from what I've heard. But any equipment bid will not be effective until February.

Rumor is it's going to be available today. Scheduling transition antics have no explanation, and the rumor is gaining steam.

Interesting. I can't see the arb panel going for that, but who knows...would be nice. Maybe.

Today's the day it leaks out or a final award is published?

The last official update said that today marks the end of the first comment period, but then there would be a secondary round of rebuttal comments, if you will, extending to July 27.

Just my SWAG.
