My guess is approx next spring if they get delivery moved up to 2016. Iow and IMO, there will be one more 744 displacement bid before the A350 initial bid if the earlier delivery becomes reality.

You are correct on the OOB GS while on SC. Never thought of that scenario.

You can be legal for a lot of stuff while on LC that is for less than a 12 hour report. 117 makes some stuff illegal, but I've done a few GS's on LC with one short leg to an overnight. Doesn't pay much GS pay, but if you are going to get called the next day for something anyways.....might as well get a few hours of extra pay.

I'm not disputing that it happened, but I just can't get my mind around an OOB GS while on SC. Why would the company pay you 2x to voluntarily fly a trip when they can just force you to do it for free?
I regularly see all sorts of potential GS out of NYC go to ATL reserves. All it costs the company is 1 DH from ATL...

They can't force you to show up at the airport 1 hour after calling you.

Default Atlanta Parking

The Pilot Parking Information Guide for Atlanta says that I need a "WP Parking Decal" in order to gain access to the Campcreek Parking Lot. Is this the same decal I got during the sims from the office on the bottom floor of the building near the intersection of Delta Blvd and Airport Loop, or do I need to go to the CPO and get another parking decal?

Thanks, I hadn't considered that. Heck, even living in PTC that would be a tough time table to comply with.
