31Hz,
Does the training for those involuntarily excessed occur in reverse seniority only in regards to the specific aircraft? So if ANC MD11F/O training was slated prior to any other a/c then that would explain why that Capt was sent prior to the others?
The group that re-bid the 777 are then removed from the involuntary excess bid list and would appropriately go to training by seniority I believe.
