75% gets my vote.
All I can say is it is complete BS if any captain goes based on fleet and seat. I know it becomes more difficult where we may or may not see fleets removed. When I passed my command course there were some who failed....twice. They now sit RHS on the fleet. Under the proposed fleet and seat they would be safe. Madness!
The cost of demoting on type is nothing, it’s completely legal and the flexibility is huge. As people point out the job is “pilot officer” as per our contracts. The contract then says base and rank. If base is not a position then there is no way rank is either. Our contracts also state LIFO in principle.
Anyone sign a new contract when they became a captain?
Despite all of the above I will hope to see options to avoid CR as I do not wish to see any pilot made CR.
