Nope, but they should be. I sent a comment in about this a few years ago, but did not hear anything back. A step parent gets the bennies, so in-laws should get them as well. Like Step-parents, one set of in-laws should be afforded the benefits. ( so, basically, after the divorce your second set for inlaws/step parents is used up!)

Some people have no taste.

HA HA!

Brings a tear to my eye Carl, really does.

Will y'all permit me a rant? OK, thanks!

When I see graffiti in bathrooms and cockpits I am saddened by how we diminish ourselves.

This is the type of thing you expect to find in a truck stop. We think we should be paid better than truck drivers, no?

We should conduct ourselves in a manner commensurate with how we demand to be treated.

JMHO.

I believe you are mistaken.
Last I saw, their Section 12J still has a Variable Min (4 to 6) for Duty Periods not Calendar Days.

I'd love to get 5:15 per Calendar Day, but it might be just as good to deal with it through trip rig (TAFB).

Trip rig won't stop the 10:30 three day domestic trips. Calendar day ensures you get paid for every day at work. Arriving from the west coast at 7am after flying the red eye all night should count as a day at work.

There may be a short term reactionary bounce, but if you don't get out then, there is potential for real ugliness. You will recall what happened when Wall Street partially reduced leverage in 2007-2008. Now we face the prospect of the largest business in the World, the US Government, doing the same.

Anyone know the trick to look up old reason reports in PBS. I'm trying to see the results of last Sept. When I pull up say Sept 2010 under the results tab I see the award but not the reason report. I haven't been able to find this info since they changed the format on it. Thanks
