I have not read the rules...isn't there 300 odd pages? I'll let the scheduling SIG guys tear it up. I think we can do better by staying out and negotiating with the Company. I suspect our current contract meets much of the new rules. I have no desire to be limited to 3 hub turns if that is in the new rules. I'm just feeling good at the 3rd night. No thanks to working 3 on 3 off etc. Wish we still had the week on/week off 6 day trips. Hate working the 3rd week penalty trip. Let's get all the facts from the document before we slit our own throats.
All good points.
