My contention is they should be counting anyone that is awarded RES on that day, whether they have finished OE yet or not. It is more than reasonable to assume that they will be out on the line by the time that date rolls around, unless they are on Shadow days.
Even if we spot them the Shadow days, that would still make the majority of the month positive (at least prior to the first PCS run) allowing for a little bit of QOL in categories affected by this issue.
I hear ya. My comment was tic. I saw that 2 day in nyc go out on a gs to atl, I don't get how an atl resident would be able to pull that off but I can say I've had friend on atl737 get next day 4 day GS in nyc. It is possible when staffing has collapsed.
I don't get the number either, but one thing I thought is if they show 5 required on Friday but there are 7 actually available is it because of trips that went out earlier in the week that would knock out 2 on Friday? I look at that number all the time and it fluctuates all the time. I don't know why.
