I can't help but laugh at you L-ASA types who think the ILIW is some encumbrance on our lives. It's 24 hours once a month and it's not something you HAVE to do. It's just the time you have the OPTION of improving your schedule. And it's not even really 24 hours out of your life; if anything awesome is gonna happen, it happens in the first few minutes of the window opening. Now, if you got what you wanted from the bid (like all the senior, PBS-loving CRJ-types claim) then who cares about the line IMPROVEMENT window? You have nothing to improve on, right? So quit whining, congratulate yourself on how awesomely senior you are, go to the bar and have a beer without having to feel awkward when you don't buy the first round. Sheesh!
Not to be a flamebait, but if you are flying a 16 hour duty day with reduced over night, are you just screwed for the next month?
