hope this helps you out, and gives an idea on what to expect.

Ouch, I hope the defer was worth it. About 40-50 pilots went ahead of you then.

Appreciate it, thank you. To add insult to injury, we're fighting with State Farm over a roof. Major hail damage and they "offered" about 5K below all bids, even after a $2,600 deductible. The fun never ends!

Side note... I noticed in the recent system bid a bunch of guys bid over from the 190 to 320 JFK.

Nothing wrong with that:

- Why go out and work hard for 79 hours when you get paid 75 on RSV?
- Flexibility of moving single days instead of trying to move awarded trips.
- Part time job , tour guide in SDQ, pays well.

Along with that 72 vacancies in the 190 vs 12 in the bus. Very lopsided. Would not be surprised to see 190 heavy new hire classes for a while.

Wonder what that will do to the already "short" 190 upgrade times??? I did see a swap from 190 CA to 320 FO.

Yes. They were awarded CA last bid but had not started training yet. So they were free to bid whatever they wanted.

They probably realized they were going to be on reserve for a very long time so decided maybe it was better to stay an FO.
