I've talked to an ASA guy with about my seniority on that side that made just under that and flew 850 hours. If you are making a soft time argument, you want our soft time rules. We could use an improvement in our trip/duty rigs, but everything else is beyond solid. Naturally, our goal should be to take our soft time rules minus trip/duty rigs.....those we should adopt what you guys have and even try to improve upon it some more. Just my .02
I asked what your rigs were, because I've been unable to find them (and curiously no one wants to give a direct answer). I didn't ask about your hourly rate including per diem and all that 200% red flag stuff from last summer.

So again, what are your trip/duty rigs and min day in that mainline contract of yours? Honest question.
