Again, not a reserve guru here, but you have to know what the reserve max in your category is. If you are within 5:13 of the alv, you are also close to max reserve. Trips in your bid package that would take you over are not assignable to you. You are only on the hook for a short domestic turn by the sound of it. Pick up one of those and you are done.

I am glad we have sissy jets. Never flew and never probably (if I can help it) will fly the powerful manly maddog. I dont have any character and like it that way.

I completely understand how you could be done for the month. Magically a few or more months ago, I was able to turn a (very few) day month into "full" as a lineholder. I look forward to bidding with LCAs again. Workrules rule!
Too funny. Yeah, talked to skeds. On the hook for 6:13. Not too many turns on the "Sissy Jet" Thanks for all the help.
Happy Holidays

NewK;

What he said. I have jumpseated numerous times on the -9. I'm a dog watching TV, completely lost. I know there's a vor in front of us, I know there's an airfield out there somewhere. I'm just lost. I am absolutely certain I could not competently go thru DC-9 school.

You -9 guys/gals definitely win in the "non-sissy jet" category.
