There is no such thing as a free lunch. The company needs IOE clarification and we need more flow numbers. It's a win win. I't might suck getting displaced here and there. But it does help the student/company/IOE instructor out a lot. Plus if you get displaced you gave the option of doing nothing. Stay at home.

The problem is there's no clear language to guide the company. There isn't any in the current contract either. Some how right now they can displace you at any time up until 1200 hours prior, no max limit. The LOA doesn't fix that either. The current contract allows the company to violate the trip trade language, trades up to 48 hours, with the displacement language, any time up to 12 hours prior. Once you're displaced into additional flying or(read and) LCR, you are locked from trading due to being a "reserve" pilot.

Did I explain that clearly enough? Not trying to be an ass, the interwebs sucks in clear communications sometimes.

Nobody is better then the other.

Envoy is no better then PSA or PDT and the faster you come to grips with that the lower your blood pressure will become.

Pilots were pointing out the grey language a week or two ago. Unbelievable.
