The seventh short call is only for months when the reserve guarantee is 75 or greater, so I don't mind doing a 7th short call once in a while for an additional 5 hours of pay.
After Los 29 I'm getting a lot more sc's. Six last month and over 50hrs of block. Didn't do anything the first week so that was in the last three. We will all see more sc's going forward. More trips getting broken up to keep pilots available.
