What you didn’t get the training by read file? Then followed by the union email reminding you to read the FOM before doing these flights? Catch the Spirit!!

with the MCDU you can pick the exit point of the offset. So you can insert that the same time you insert the offset.

A GNE from a SLOP would be pretty sloppy, as a GNE is 10nm.

2 mile offset is still within the airway, not a GNE.
