I'm a no on this single issue. This is well beyond trading work rules for pay and into trading safety for pay.
One more thought- guys are talking about the 88 fleet seeing a lot of this, but lets remember that we're bringing a lot of RJ block hours to mainline. To see the potential for the company to use these things going forward, we need to be looking at how they're done at DCI carriers, now how they could be made to fit current bid packages.
no no no... 2200 show... 2300 go, scheduled 0100 land... (could be 0115 if the MEC buys into it....) then getting away from the airplane at... oh. let;s say... 0130. 15 minute van ride... 15 minutes to check in and find your room... = 0200 Go time is 0700, so you get picked up at 0545. But you need to shower shave and whatever... 0500 wake up. Congrats, you just got 3 hours of rest on a "scheduled" 6 hours between flights. Complete BS. Scrappy should be ashamed to present this crap.
I will not vote to trade safety for money
