T... the whole point of alllll this ALV+15 back and forth was that the number of guys who actually fly >ALV, up towards 99, is MEANINGLESS, and is NOT the benefit the company wanted. It's the ABILITY to push guys that high rarely if needed that removes a constraint and allows the company to accept lower winter-level manning.
You're right. I am totally confused now. You mean that it is not about the infinitely small potential to have to fly to 99 hours... but rather the fact that gives the company the flexibility to actually make pilots work for a paycheck in the winter???? Here I sit in the socialist utopia that is San Francisco, and all the street people are the ones who get it... I guess....
