I'm jealous. I live in San Diego and still have to hump it to CVG due to my equipment. My system seniority holds it.

Yikes.

Taken at face value it's very odd. This has to be one of those times when there has to be more to the story.

My guess is that BC has another agenda. He's from there I believe. Pretty sure he will get to spend his last bit of time doing exactly as he pleases. If he doesn't need the scratch, more power to him.

Rumors of a June 30 class but suppose we'd have heard for sure by now.

Crew force is stable since January vacancy bid at 1,002 total pilots, but we've hired 60 to keep up with retirements/attrition.

I called HR a week ago to check on my status in the pool. I was told there was a June 30th class that is filled. No other details about that but she said no classes scheduled beyond that as of now. Subject to change.
