Ok.....if you say so. They're calling a Dec 22nd initial hire class 2-17 as well, so I am not sure the "2" had anything to do with it being the 2nd class of 2017. The way it's worded it only mentions one for 2017, so if your class is 1-17C, then that's great.

My class is listed at 1-17C so I'm assuming what he listed is referring to both. But your right, the way it was worded seems like only one class will be honored.

Before offering personal leaves, why don't we start by allowing every line holder to bid for a 75 hr line? The bottom third percentage of line holders always seem to get stuck with the crap 12-14 day off 90+ hr lines. Yes I know this is how PBS works... but if we are overstaffed, can't we adjust PBS awards so that pilots that can hold a line at all seniority levels can bid for a max day off 75 hr line???

Good plan but that makes too much sense and we all know how making sense here works

And if we aren't properly staffed to have f@cking green days in every base then how are we overstaffed to the point that voluntary LOA's are ok?

No ****. My point is, why doesn't MW give a plan to reduce overworked pilots schedules before going straight to voluntary leaves. While a leave would be nice, I'm sure most of us can't afford to take a month or 2 without pay, at least I certainty can't. Would I would like however, is the opportunity to get a min credit and decent day off line for a change. And like another guy said, how about some green days for a change?? Why jump straight into offering leaves. Give EVERYONE a chance at relief before offering a select few who can afford to take a personal vacation without pay.

So is the general consensus that this will only be a short term hiccup for y'all? I hope so because this is scary for a guy who's at the bottom of a competitors seniority list.
