First and foremost, they supposedly build trips to keep credit time to a minimum, according to them. A quick glance at most categories trips though, I see a ton of deadheading. Also, they build un commutable 5 day trips no one wants and then have to break them up sometimes when they assign a reserve and have to deadhead a pilot out and in mid trip which increases credit time. I'm not smart enough to figure it out.
