I'm really thankful for a great Chief Pilot with common sense. But FYI... be very careful with commuting and with deviating from deadhead.
Any way you can elaborate on this a little without exposing yourself? Personally, I think the new deviate from deadhead policies are worthless. Scheduling can DH me on DCI to my base, but they can't send me home on DCI? They will PS to suit their needs, but there has to be seats available to suit my needs? If there are seats available, I can nonrev. This policy is worthless!
