Yeah I dont see why they won't offer it to the 175 pilots. I have heard training costs are part of it, but hell, training is training regardless of 145 or 175. I know they have an abundance of 145 drivers right now with everything happening in LGA, but I would think this situation dictates the use of as many VLOA as are willing to take it.
Guess that's why I am not in the management office though.
