How do you know how many applied for each base slot, Plainpilot?

more than that for YVR. There’s no meaningful openings. And there won’t be more that make a dent in the desire for most to be out of HKG. For 95% of Pilot’s that want a base, this current opening was no more than a demoralizing awareness that most will NEVER be on a base.

Time to Flee.
