This is a great system if we had actual seniority advancement...
Maybe a few years from now I can be the "senior" reserve FO ;-)

Sorry, but that's just not right...give a guy a 6th SC for the month because he's a 3-day availability pilot when there are 4-day+ pilots in the hopper with ZERO SCs & ZERO raw?! Computer or no computer, that's going a bit far with the seniority rationale. I as much as anyone look forward to greater seniority someday so that I too may enjoy the benefits that accompany that status, but I think that's taking it entirely too far.
