For ATL 88 B, I think if you're 79-80% or so you'll probably get Christmas day off on reserve. I believe I've seen at times 90% get weekends off throughout the year but I'm not 100% sure of that and I wouldn't look at December results as normal.

And no SC right now has nothing to do with your RAW, but come February 2012 that will change in accordance with LOA 29 (unless something else changed that I don't know about)

This is the LOA 29 addition to the PWA that adds SC to RAW scores:

A. Amend Sections 2 A. 208. and 23 A. 35. to read:
208. “Reserve assignment weighting” (RAW) means a value assigned to a reserve
pilot that is based on his accumulated credit in a bid period, his CROC days in
- 2 -
a bid period, and his number of short call credits in a bid period. A reserve
pilot’s RAW is used as part of the process of sequencing him for assignment
to open time. Such value will be calculated using the following formula,
rounded to the nearest integer:
Reserve assignment weighting = [(A  C) x 75] + [(B  D) x 100] + (E x 5),
where:
A = …
.
.
E = the number of short call periods for which the pilot has been credited in
the bid period.
