Of course, if you're senior to me, I recommend vacancy bidding. ;-)
I agree, this is one more reason to just have a displacement list. No preference or proffer. Since we start getting paid now with the award, no reason to try to get to training sooner, unless you just really want to start logging the PIC time. But that will get you to the bottom of the reserve list sooner as well.
I’m going to try and optimize my schedule and pay until then.
