Not sure where you're based, but if in ORD...all it will take is one quick call to RG and it will be done with 0 questions asked. He knows how to work with his employees!

What happened to Steve-O? He used to be pretty good with helping crew out.
RG is a class act. It'll be a sad day if he ever leaves.

Training manager in Denver, if I remember correctly, is that it is 6 per seat on the 175. So while the growth is a good thing, its going to be interesting to see how many senior people move west out of ORD, or if it will suddenly turn senior as all the junior guys move back west.

Military advancement serves an entirely different purpose. They are screening people to move to the next phase of a system which ultimately generates commanding officers, and generals & admirals.

For military assignments WITHIN a peer group (same MOS and duty) date-of-rank seniority is usually what determines schedule once mission, training, and career-development are accounted for. Ie, the senior person gets to take leave over Christmas.
