We have 75hr guarantee, and a lot of reserve guys that I've talked to on the B1900 fly closer to 90hrs, by choice. A few guys this past month have flown 102+hrs. That right there is more than most regionals.
Yes the duty rig sure helps, and I'd agree that cancellation pay is a must and its great that we have it. But this is a bankruptcy contract. Please keep that in mind.
