It seemed to me when I wanted to fly, I got three readies in a row. When I didn't, I got 4 day trips. I don't know about other bases, but JFK the ready assignments are no worse than they were a year or two years ago. Now, if today (I hold a line now) they are using that 'you are the only one so we have to do more than 3 readies for you this week' or more than 10 a month...then that IS a problem. A DTW FO was commenting to me recently that it seems 9E is biting off more than we can chew when it comes to covering other's flying. Many reserves fly, but those who are left after assignments are given, are stuck with marathon ready reserve?
