Hey guys, just wanted to chime in real quick. Don't worry about losing flying in the 200, back in march i saw the same thing for mays schedule where it looked like you guys were dropping a bunch of 200 flights and we were picking them up. They just hadn't loaded the schedule yet. ITs probably the same thing for august.

Don't freak us out like that man! ha ha. I think PinnacleFO is right. I don't think Delta has any clue as to what's going on in August or September. Maybe they do but they probably don't "post" the schedules on their public websites this early. It makes no sense to drop ALL of those cities (and there are a lot of them) and not pick anything up without announcing aircraft reductions. Lets just take this one month at at time. For our own sanity.

Have any of you junior guys on the 200 been used on reserve?

I'm a junior 200 FO and I've been flying around 10 hours a month... that seems to be pretty average for 200 FO reservists from what I've heard.

Wow. I wonder what's going to happen here. I'm a senior reserve and 10 hours is what I got in April. For January-March I was averaging 40-50 hours.

Less people call in sick in the summer... so that probably has something to do with it. Practically all the flights I've been doing are 900 downgrades

It is all screwed up they are short on 900 FOs and CAs in MEM and short on Saab FOs in MSP. I know junior FOs on the Saab in MSP that are flying like 50-60 hours on reserve.

40-50 should be about average, that way we can all pay the bills
