Just curious if I should've been assigned that trip or is it completely random.
Thanks.
Are you both consolidated?
I put in for YSs when I was new on reserve (and thought I was getting them because I flew nearly every reserve block), but when I looked at the Pilot Activity Statements (I think) for the time period, they were not YS awards after all.
I think the schedulers push newbs to get consolidated ASAP.
Maybe you're consolidated and he's not? Did he actually get a YS?
