Bid max blg without carryover for your first month, and all other months until the last month of training. After IOE they will credit you with any training days that you actually performed, along with your IOE trips, and determine how many more credit hours you owe them, and build your custom line from that info. It doesn't matter what the footprint of your imaginary awarded line was , only the credit hours that you were paid for that month. IE... If you were awarded and paid for a line with 70 credit hrs, and your training and IOE adds up to say 50 hrs, then they are going to squeeze 20 more hrs of work out of you on your custom line as long as there are days of work remaining to do so.

Good luck in training!
