I put this right up there with the additional A330's rumor.

Man this is worse than Christmas as a kid waiting to see whether i got anthracite or Bituminous. ..

Well, let's say the first run produced massive MDs. I'm sure they're now just trying to make decisions on how they want to handle that and say run some categories, say the ER, fat?

Just a hunch but everyone loves their 757/767. My hunch is these senior ATL 767 guys go to the ER. ER guys would then get displaced and most likely to airplanes they can hold. And knowing that these pilots will bid back to the 757/767 ASAP, then they know they'll have to pay for two training cycles per MD'd ER pilot. That cost cash, which is just money. So what's the ROI on MDing an ER pilot to the 73 vs keeping them on the ER?

I'm frankly surprised they'd be able to get it out in a day. Hope they do so pilots don't wait around til Monday. I think that's kind of crappy given that it's MDs. Which is all we seem to do anymore.

Ah the price you pay for me making every base ER qualified!
Lax no international flights, SLC one international flight(CDG),Msp One(Ams)
Should have kept them domestic as well as ATL. Then they could have made Jfk,Dtw,Atl and Sea purely international on the 7ER

Been watching that. Did you see a change in your status?

For those with no change, it would be hard to confirm that "no change" was "no change" opposed to "we went home."

How do we request conversion to be earlier, later, etc?
