through no fault of my own. I did not pick anything extra up. My point is the reserves are not the only ones feeling it this summer. All of our contractual changes are being taken advantage of to use less pilots. We know this.
I think I'm the odd ball this month with a 75 hour line but that's because I bid min credit and tear down and rebuild from there. of course I bid min credit else start next for July and got the else start next since out of 400+ lines only 30 were allowed min credit.
but by some calculus were supposedly over staffed on the 88. actually I've heard there is a fear that we will cancel flights for a lack of crews but then I've heard they're okay with the current level of GS/WS as they see it as cheaper than hiring. and unless they're unable to staff on a clear day they'll blame canceled trips on irops.
I'm just eating the popcorn.
