Also, without a good bit of extraneous math, how do you figure out how many numbers up or down you've moved in category?

Thanks
GO look at the PWA sections 22.D.3 and 22.D.2. These are the literally definitions of what these two staffing reports are.

I would bid for your vacation. As soon as I get a new jet, I put in my requests for vacation. The projected conversion dates are just that, projected, and they can change. One day or two in your case may make a difference.

Also bid for a line while in training. We no longer will have blank lines, and if you do not bid, you may get thrown on a reserve line.

That's up in the air. Could be MSP, could be MIA.

I'm going through A320 training next month. Will I get a full type rating or just an SIC?

The contract TA brought to the pilot group by DALPA will make or break the union. If it is weak, they are gone! No pressure DALPA!
