I think you are correct in your assertion that when things pick up the system will make more sense. As a junior guy I just hope that slow times are slow for everyone not just a few
I think the use of YS'ing will be even more important now for the junior rsv pilots.
Just got off the phone with ALPA schedualing guy, they think new system is wonderful and have no idea that many of us will be adversely affected. My category is overstaffed and not many will be able to leave the eighty point bucket, even if they are first up everyday. I've gone from line holder to junior reserve within the last year. I did not choose this, just making the best of it.
I think the eighty point bucket is too large, one four day trip should at least get you into the next level. If you agree call DALPA, as far as they are concerned they just hit a home run.
