I agree completely. Another issue is that not all LCA trips are actually used for training. Also, quite a few LCA swap their trips around after the initial bid comes out. Withholding trips hurts all the first officers in a category not just senior guys because there are less trips in the pot overall for bidding.Originally Posted by Flamer
Having trips unavailable for a senior FO to bid and given to a lower seniority pilot for training is an abrogation of seniority. I say status quo, or they can cobble together open time. I don't bid these, nor have I ever had this happen, but this is BS.
