Another example of the outlier being used as the norm. Most of the guppy pilots I talk to are complaining about the lack of trips other than 4 days available to bid. So it isn't like everyone on the guppy does 1 day trips and is home every night. Very few get to do that. Same thing on the L-UAL side on the Airbus.

As far as big vs little airplanes, did you read the award? The slots were created based on aircraft size. So lots of slots in the top were for L-UAL pilots because we had more big airplanes. Lots of slots at the bottom reserved for L-CAL airplanes because of the 1,300 guppy FO jobs brought to the mix. Are you aware that on a strict stovepipe that MOST CAL 2005 hires were in the stovepipe of guppy FO in 2010?

Puts things in perspective when you deal in facts and not just emotions.
