This is purely speculation but I believe that most of the vacancies for now will be in LAX due to addition of the AA flying based out of LAX (what we know right now).

That being said the most senior base for Captains at this point is MSP and as those folks leave it WILL create openings in MSP. It just remains to be seen how many of us bid back to MSP...

In my situation if I have to choose between 18-19 days off and productive trips as a LAX Captain or Reserve or a 12 day off line in MSP I may have to think hard about my life as a commuter...

Good eye! I think you may be correct. Thanks!

Those darn FAA commas get me every time.

So, looking closer:

+ Turbojet PIC.
+ More than 10 pax seats, PIC.
+ Multi-engine commuter, PIC.

All count.

It's got to be near 100%, Honestly just study, and don't be a jerk and you will be fine. I'm sure there are a couple people who don't make it, but I'm sure it is a small percentage.

AQP has been here pretty much since the beginning.
