(BTW, all you quiet types out there owe me a coke for asking all these questions!)
How far down the category list the line-holders go varies by month of year, base, and equipment. In some categories at times of year the most junior Pilot can and does get a line.
For example in slow months - say February, many senior pilots will bid reserve allowing even the most junior guys to bid a line.
