The guys dropping on the trade board probably won’t have much trouble doing so if the predictions of less OT being available are true. The Greedy pilots we have here won’t be able to help themselves. Example, similar to now when a senior pilot takes all the summer vacation slots and gives them to their junior buddy: Nothing stops a deal between guys bidding a week of vacation and having their junior pal that wants that week off and flys min schedule anyway to bid to work it, then the senior guy can take the junior guys trips off the trade board and still get his 150% addiction fed. My point is there are ways to exploit the system and more of them will come out as we adjust to the new normal.
