clear.right
I've been a strong supporter of seniority for all of my career.
So you think a new joiner S/O should be given the right to take a basing as an FO even if he doesn't have enough experience to upgrade to FO?
Aren't there experience minimums to upgrade to FO?
All i was saying is that "if" none of the current eligible HK based crew bid for a basing then it should be opened to DEFO's BUT only if basings open up again.
