office still taking LWOP applications. my manager informed me that leave burn LSL is the current priority then "most likely" a VR package in short order followed by CR if necessary. co is reluctant re CR because the cheapest F/As on the payroll, QCCA, are the group to take the hit along with LHR, BKK and AKL bases. there is some speculation whether BKK will have their contract renewed ( due in september?). approximately 120 in that base. CR, if it happens, up to 6 months away
