Fair enough. But I STILL stand by my statement. The PBS faithful love love love to rant on and on about how great PBS is. Not just for schedule, but because it creates LESS reserve pilots. I'll take you word for it that it's not the case. But it just helps to solidify the point that not only NO, but hell to the NO will the ERJ side subject ourselves to the existing PBS system and language. We ALL read the same crap and message boards, it gets beat to death everywhere. I'd rather it just drag out on the JCBA than accept anything LESS than what the ERJ side has now.
Reserve sucks, but under ERJ reserve rules it sucks less, way less than CRJ reserve rules. And I'm fine with the line holder rules as well.
