Lets hope its all true (I am hearing we may "give up" the 29 in 7" block language). I know a lot of guys wanted this anyway and if its the case, I applaud our N/C negotiating something for it rather than just give it away so guys here can just pick up and have off 8 days a month, lol
29/7 is probably 90% of my transition conflicts. How many less pilots do they have to hire and upgrade if they get a major productivity increase like 29/7? The guys that dislike it because it prevents them from picking up every now and then have no idea the protection they are getting from it.
