Heyas nK,
Not to sound toolish, but I am recommending NWA guys do exactly that. Bid the best paying piece of equipment, as soon as you can. If that means commuting to ATL for left seat on the -88 versus lounging in DTW on the 330 right seat, then so be it.
With the severe dilution of the short term attrition and loss of position during the final years, the mid-junior NWA pilot MUST bid to start making maximum bank now to compensate for loss of future income. To do this effectively, you need to take advantage of any displacement bids.
This is an unavoidable consequence of the SLI award, and the one bright spot for NWA guys. It is what it is.
