Ok, So lets say that there is a class in Sept. or later summer, and they have even 2 classes taking on 30 + or more pilots... Then what? Isn't it important to looking further down then just the immediate class date? If they are really only projecting limited hiring then who will take your place down the road for reserve? Or would this more likely mean you will sit reserve for a very extended amount of time and not be able to bid a different domicile for quite some time as well? I really wanted to work for this company but I also want to be able to eventually live in a certain base and not be on reserve...people that work there can correct me if i am wrong but haven't many people not been able to bid or change domiciles for quite some time, and are still on reserve because no one is replacing them?

Just thoughts.
