Ice you're right as this will be the first realignment, but ATL is not congested. The flying out of here is increasing but being done by crews not only from ATL but NYC, CVG, LAX, SLC, and DTW 744 and 330 crews. And if the rumor is right then the 320 and 9 should be here soon doing fly throughs with no base. This is the realignment of 765s and the elimination of the 767 category. The problem for ATL pilots is no 330 base on this AE so seats go out but don't come in. I think we really wish we had a 320 or 9 base in this AE but we didn't get anything but a kick in the privates.
Our best or only hope here in ATL is they decide to go fat. But I'm not planning on it. Jew Gardens here I come!
HA! iPhone autocorrects typing, type Kew and it replaces it with Jew. Funny.

Is there an APC app on the iphone or you just using safari?

I'm glad I've got 30 hours in BWI starting tonight to process all these numbers.
Brain hurt. Need more sidebutt pictures.

I don't think there would be any 07-08 hires in ATL and maybe some pre 9/11 hires might be gone too. I think that first 07 class has only about 230-240 ATL pilots below them.
I wouldn't be surprised if there are 0 07-08 hires in any widebody category much to the joy of the "that's not fair (to me) you got hired right into that plane" club.

Which means that there will be no 2000 or 2001 hires from the N.
I am sure that the 2000 and 2001 DAL-N are going to be excited about the 2007/2008 hires coming in on top of them in the Bus.
Kind of like my kids say "You get what you get and don't pitch a fit"

Quick question that is probably moot, but does a reinstatment preference go over an AE preference?

A pilot who has been involuntarily displaced may be reinstated to the category from which he was displaced ahead of pilots attempting to bid into that category if a vacancy is posted in that category with a conversion period that begins within 180 days of the conversion date of the MD.

I'm going to refer to this bid as the "Great Atlanta Underboob."
