That good sir is 320 hours plus the vacation buy back. I personally know 2 captains that did that but only picked 4 trips with an FO that did well over 320 hours last month

I looked at our open time.. Thomorrow there are still 7 trips available in open time for captain just on the dash. It is gotten very very desperate out there.
