"The Company may deny a pilot’s submission for a bid line adjustment that involves the movement or drop of an R-day(s) if such would exceed the forecasted reserve requirement for that date and reserve period as determined by the Reserve Forecast modeling system. "

Does anybody have a clue on how many damn reserves they need per the "Reserve Forecast modeling system?"
