if they would offer another LOA, I think more would take it now. I know I would. I have rotor jobs lined up that I didn’t have last time they offered.
The question I have as a junior FO is will they suspend the language to allow FOs to bid aircraft to aircraft. I hope not, bc I want to be displaced from the 145-175. If they do a vacancy and allow FOs to bid birds I’m stuck on the 145 for years, on reserve and not flying
Eh, Rick isn't doing this to be decent.
I don't think it would matter if they 'relaxed' the language. The "proffer to displace" option I think would function as a vacancy unless there's something special in that provision regarding FOs or something (been a while since I read it). It's not the same thing but if you could have held it if there was a vacancy, you could probably hold it with proffer to displace if there's no vacancy.
