nothing that you said is true or even remotely realistic. The FAA can't certify planes that have been flying for years, you expect them to approve stuff that hasn't even been created yet?

All 24 cpt vacancies go to LAX ? Is this an F U from the company. Seriously no other base needs any cpts?

LAX was supposed to grow a long time ago….

Where do we think the seniority for captains will be in BNA?

Wheres that meme of the skeleton in the left seat again? It’ll be kind of like that - at least for a while. Walkers with tennis balls on the legs, and soft foods at the holiday parties. Free jitterbug giveaways at the message to the field. The employee lot filled with Hoveround scooters as far as the eye can see…

Oooof. LAX and OAK for all you junior upgraders. Not a great month to try and switch between bases.

That report needs a redo.

Why not just publish a mock vacancy bid?

Pretty sure the TA requires SWA to now. No idea when it’ll be implemented.
