Bingo. I spent years as an FO on reserve with the old pre13 contract, 72 hr guarantee 10 days off and hardly ever flying to get per diem or break guarantee. Sorry if I don't have pitty on current FOs who spent a month or two on reserve and got their 20k bonus taken out of their hands. In time you will see the MEC did the right thing (Aboveandbeyond)
