I have heard that some LAA reserves fly more than LUS reserves...from the sounds of it (at least MIA 75/76), it seems about the same. I typically fly about 20-30 hours in the low months and 40-50 in the busy months on reserve out of CLT.
Any idea if that's about the same on the 319 out of DFW (my desired location)?
"Promptly" will mean whatever management wants it to mean. We will go through an "example" period and then it will end up in arbitration for a definition. Ambiguous contract language always favors management. That's why they love it so much.
