You would have to look at what the credit range was for the EWR 320 fleet but my guess is that it is slightly north of 72 hours. For this reason the line would have been illegal to award you.
The PBS system awards credit and NOT flight time. So sometimes this will cause lines to go junior, when junior guys have union days or vacation or MLA.
Ok i thought I was with you but now i'm lost again. Looking at my award report, there were 4 remaining when it got to me, which are the 4 trips that went to the more junior person. These trips equaled 72 hours exactly. There are several people with 72 hour lines and below (some are at 70). Again I had no restrictions on my bid. Every trip was in the pool. Again, im just trying to understand the system.
