So an FO displaced to CA in a seat they do not desire is not seat locked and may preference bid to get a seat they do desire in subsequent system bids.

Are they (displaced FOs) only able to get the top 30% of seats available to them on subsequent bids like other CAs, or can they bid for and have available 100% of the other equipment CA seats. Not sure how to ask that or if it makes sense. Do the same equipment change rules apply for displaced FOs as CAs who had preference bid? Is it tracked?

You're technically still an FO til you pass your Fed ride. If you're still on IOE when that next bid is run, then you fall in the FO bucket. At least that's my understanding, and how it played out for me back in July after an April displacement.

I got the upgrade award back in OCT ‘17 exactly at 1.5 years of service as well, no prior 121/35 time, and I am an April 2016 hire. So it’s not entirely uncommon.

Can you be assigned a non CDO trip on a CDO standby or rap? I understand if the companies in a pinch and need someone to do it they would. But wondering if this is common or if anyone has had it happen.
They will try, but you can only be used for a CDO. Usually you let then know about it they talk to a supervisor and realize it. They can have you work the night flight and deadhead back in the morning as a CDO so they can still cover the trip.

Many usefulness of flight time without taking off and landing.

OP, not take anyone’s word for it speak to you local FSDO, they’ll tell you the same thing.
Your fine logging it. It’s known. But good educational opportunity to check with your local FSDO/local DPE, company Check Airmen/CPO.
There are no 100% relevant chief counsel interpretations about it. I'm in the landing required camp, the letter referenced deals more with flight duty times, not logging time.
But if you want to log it, it's your logbook, I wouldn't judge either way, I just read the reg differently.

Just noticed my class date in my HI10. I should be doing a quick upgrade, but noticed I’m in training for nearly 2 months. Does that include IOE or is that just my class/sim footprint? Also, does QU still go for 2 days and then home for CBT’s?

That’s correct. They will adjust back down once you finish sims.

I thought this too when I first read it but it's probably from the prior bid. Some guys haven't hit training yet.
