How much of your training is being conducted in Dulles? Last I heard the jet training was supposed to start in Dulles in January.

No. Supposedly it’s in the works but from what I can tell it’s just in the brainstorming phase. Probably more than a year out.

I suspect the company is only paying for hotel rooms because they want to slow the pace of resignations. Management only changes when they’re forced to because of money. It’s cheaper to pay for hotel rooms than pay market rates for pilots.

I heard 20 people resigned over a two week period after the displacements were announced. I’d like to see the updated seniority list but I don’t think it will be real. I know three people that quit months ago that are still on the list.

On the list or domicile listing page?
The latter seems to be updated more accurately.

Wow. I'm looking for an IAD base in the next 6 months. If not commutair then who? Don't want DCA base and no prior 121 time.

The seniority list. They were also part of the displacements list. My Sim partner got displaced from Newark to Dulles but he quit two months ago. But the people on those two forms are not on the domicile page. As long as 1 page gets it right I guess.
