Good info...if it's still correct. There's just way too much directly conflicting information out there right now. The only thing I think we can all agree on is that we all will have no idea until we show up. Time to start comparing total time...
Change of subject, but has anyone stayed at the Crowne Plaza in MEM? I found a grocery store and a Walgreens within walking distance (about 0.5 and 0.7 miles respectively), but does the hotel shuttle ever make store runs? Three weeks is a long time to subsist on continental breakfast and fast food (especially with no per diem clock running).

We are now really short handed on the Saab so its a possibility.

The hotel shuttle will make a weekly run to Walmart and you can usually convince the drivers to take you to kroger other times. There are several places to eat within walking distance especially close to Pinnacle's new headquarters downtown.

Will that mean short reserve time for the saab?

I'm still on reserve here in IAD but for the April bid period there are only 7 reserve lines. I finished IOE just before Christmas and it looks like I'll have a line in May or June especially with the opening of the BOS base. I'm third from the bottom on the Saab and the person one spot above (he's from my Sep class) has a standup line this month. You have a lot better chance of holding a line on the Saab then on the Q. Last time I checked, there were 85 people below me on the Q and I would hold a line on it. There are at least 60 people (company wide) on the Q between you and a line.
