Reset- Does anyone here know how to use Expanded 3XP to see the lowest seniority line holder in a base?

I'm a reserve 73 FO in PHX and want to see when I could move to CLT as a line holder FO on the 73. I can see the total number and where I fall on that list. Just can't tell where the lineholders start. Thanks guys.

Use APA site. PBS 3XP. Fill in base, equip, seat, and LH.

You can see how trips are too and what guys around you are bidding.

Yeah this. PBS 3XP can give you a lot of insight into how others bid. For example, at some bases there are a lot of senior people who bid reserve in the shoulder months, etc.

October is the lowest flight time month of the year. That means fewer lines and more reserves. Sometimes the reserve to line holder ratio has dropped from 1:3 (25% reserve coverage) to 1:1 (50/50). In other words you might expect to fly 1/3 as much in October vs the yearly average as a reserve pilot. Bid reserve and hope the phone never rings!

Looks like it went to a 7/23 hire for the June vacancy

use the “PBS Award report”. The link is next to the 3xp link. It is a much more useful document…probably the most useful product put out by the APA. Shows days off, trips (with hyperlink to actual full trip HSS), credit, what layer the pilot solved in, coverage days, etc. Lineholders, SCR, LCR, what the reserve pilots bid (must off vs prefer off)
