Basically all the cherry 1-1's with DHs go to any seniority level inside three hours, which is generally when they come up.

I don't find it funny that a #15000 pilot gets an easy 1-1 over an 8000 FO because their fingers are faster, I get this board skews heavily junior but you guys won't be for long. In 3-4 years it will be you moaning about how the new hires are picking up all the nice trips.

This even has the possibility of making senior FOs upgrade now that they don't have seniority advantages. The law of unintended consequences and all that.

I don't totally understand what APU solved in todays' world, now that we have ECS/DOTC etc. APU was solving the issue where CS would have to call everyone on the list to see who wanted to fly and that could take hours, and people putting 1 min notification times on their ballots, which was just changed to 1 hour min. It was a solution for yesterdays' problems.

With DOTC which can be run automagically without even input from CS, against ballots for everyone, I just don't see the point personally and degrades everyone's QOL. Instead of chilling and getting a notification you got a trip that meets your requirements, you have to be on your phone actively holding it to have a chance of getting an APU trip. Most are gone before everyone in the bid status even gets the notification, which is another issue.

I don't IMAX for the record.
