Also don't forget that yes those MCO guys are transferring, but the flying out of that base was not lost. The block hours from the base have to go somewhere.

If you look at the MCO bid packets for the last several months most of the trips started out or ended with a deadhead so basically the guys were deadheading to a JFK or CVG trip and picking up a baulk of their schedules in and out of the other bases.

So the block hours should follow the transfers.

1600 hour increase in block hours in JFK for Oct. Enjoy your lines!

Fly Safe!

I hope that `1600 hrs extra flight time helps me get off reserve. What are you guys gona try to bid? I was gona bid MD off to get all my days off in a row but that might not be the smartest thing if they will be giving lines out (I HOPE).

Default How do you tell?
I was wondering if there is any way of telling whether or not I'll be able to hold line ahead of time?

Even if we don't get lines, the increase in block hours should mean more flying for us reserve guys...shouldn't it?

I don't understand the call list either. I got off IOE in mid August and broke guarantee by a fair amt. last month. I have been on reserve since and have flown all but 1 day. My classmates have not received 1 trip until an out & back yesterday. I'm already up there to my 75, while everyone else hasn't flown since IOE. Hotel beds beat the crashpad though!!

I think the call outs go something like this:
Low time (less than 100 hours)
Day match
Bid to fly
Inverse seniority
60 hours credit for the month
