I didn't realize we had a permanent vacancy already, I guess that does allow them to extend it to 150. It doesn't have anything to do with opening a new domicile, however. In fact, none of "pilot attrition, leaves of absence, sick leave, or the Company's pilot training requirements" caused these TDYs. So it looks like they should have run a permanent displacement.
They could easily claim that the need is because of "Company pilot training requirements". They would rather have all the bases staffed appropriately and not TDY (paying endless hotels and per diem). They just haven't managed to train everyone who has been awarded NCE yet.
