Are those 3 going to have their seniority in the class ignored and be forced to take the 3x direct entry slots even though they are senior enough to chose something else, or will they be able to take the airbus slots? Then what happens if the last 3 slots available are CA only? Do the youngest 3 in the class eat a forced upgrade when they get the hours, or will they be able to take a FO only slot?
‘Nope, it will work like every drop. It will be bided in seniority order. If those CA goes Jr, then the Jr guy will fall into the Accelerated Pilots category…
