116.
they MOU slots are only available in initial vacancies, not residuals, and don’t have to be made available every time there is an allocation. Also QF can stipulate where and w hich fleet. The recent MOU numbers in PER would also have been able to get 787 PER, 330MEL. Once checked out, normal freeze applies. Plus JQ have to agree to release the pilot on LWOP. Aren’t JQ short as well? I’d expect a few to trickle across before the brakes are put on for a while.
