8-F Activation Of Assignment
8-F-1 A Pilot’s date of “activation” shall be the date he begins in a new Category and is set by:8-F-1-a the beginning of the first segment of his OE in that Category;
or 8-F-1-b the beginning of the first segment of his first trip after training for that Category, if OE is not required;
or 8-F-1-c the first day on which he begins a schedule in that new Category, when no training is required.
Okay...Kinder or Kinder-wannabe. So the effective date of the bid is OCT 1st. Let's say a 777 guy trains in July and they can do IOE out of Dulles on the CDG or LHR trips. Are you saying that in August, the known flying in IAD will no longer be in the IAH bid packages? They will just put it all in open time in Dulles...two months before the base is opened? Just because guys are activated in the fleet does not mean they will start moving the IAH trips into PBS for the IAD guys??
You act like you are very confident in your knowledge...but without knowing who you are, I'm gonna assume you're wrong.
