Ha! I would gladly show my passport if it made a difference in terminal 3 at LAX.

I usually have to wait 20 minutes while someone looks up who Silver is...I've been going through that checkpoint almost 2 years with Silver. 2 more years with Trans States, same thing.

apparently we don't have a pilot staffing problem here.
**Looks at ATL open time for Jan**
...95 days worth of open time, and only 2 reserves

Open time in CLE doesn't exist. The outstations are the only options...

Looked at the Pref. Bid for February... I've moved up 72 spots since starting here.

No. Moving expenses if you move your residence as a result of the displacements.

I've heard 4.

Thing is, are they going to spread the love around and use them as good spares, or are they going to rat hole them all in Florida?

By the sounds of it if I hired back on I would loose 4 seniority spots but gain $6,000. haha

I'm not sure if the company will staff anymore people on the 1900 as they have said that they want to get rid of the 1900's. But again that's a question you should ask in your interview. I would think most likely it would be Saab for new hires as they need more FO's there but it could change during training. So you should ask such questions during your interview and let us know what they say.

So would anyone get FLL right out of training?
