Something does not add up. This is not bashing the pay of our MEC guys, but their pay is based on the average line pilot flying 87 hours. This number comes from the company. Where does the 52 hours come from? With our reserves down to 15% in most categories i find it hard to believe their inclusion would lower the block hours to 52.
