After you are officially released and they have 23G on your schedule, I would assume yes. It would have to be a blind white slip as you will be trying to pick up a trip at 8 or 9 o’clock day prior. That’s assuming the check airman or pilot receiving OE doesn’t get sick. You could just relax and enjoy your time off. We used to have recovery flying in your situation. It was a huge abbrogation of seniority.
