Sounds like the most productivity isn't in the pilots flying, but in the rigs kicking in, if "block tends to be considerably less than credit due to rigs".
Is the rig achievable (ie, could Southwest actually schedule a pilot to fly without the rigs kicking in), or is the rig just part of the pay package?
