Listen if you do three IAH, LAX, SFO trips in a rosterered month, that's + 90hrs credit, but maybe 45 hrs seat time. Of that maybe you touch the controls three times...maybe. You're away from home 12 days, average. Without the company imposed scheduling limitations that would be a slam-dunk bid-able schedule. Much better than the current SNAFU. Some guys are working their tails off, plus the time zone changes inherent in our flying have created an unhealthly enviroment long term.
