A lot to consider if you are on a fleet that has work (ie A330) or one that will likely have some soon (787). How many years of work and currency do you sacrifice to avoid the possibility of CR? Where is the break even point?
If it was as simple as taking 12 months LWOP to avoid any future CR, then I suspect there would be no discussion at all.
It's a very good point. I suspect people taking 13 months to simply avoid CR will be making a big mistake. But that's just my crystal balling opinion.
