The only way the company would ever agree to LBP now would be in exchange for massive freezes and other non starters.
It would be handled in the normal AE process. They could meter it out as the training department could absorb. There are very few newhires that are going into the left seat of anything bigger than a M88. They might get stuck until their 3rd year throwing gear. Oh how tragic.
I'm not arguing that it would be remotely efficient initially. Over time though it would be far better for us, and far more lucrative.
