FTB, the required number on the reserve available takes into account that most of our trips are augmented crews. I'm in my 6th year on the 777 and I have never trip parked but I know some are doing it. I really don't think trip parking is a factor on this jet because on the Capt side there are very few trips that appear on open time,most days there are zero. I would like to see some avenue that would allow our pilots to pick up to the monthly max but I also realize that people in he'll want ice water.
