Duty rig; trip rig; VOD, whatever you want to call it, is important because WE come to work to make money. We do not come to work to sit in hotels and pick our noses, ok, ad nauseum and do nothing but wash our clothes and eat the same boring breakfast day in and day out in the same run down Holiday Inn for 16 days. If we then fly a ten hour trip, we expect to be paid for it. For the fifteen days that we sat, we want CREDIT for sitting those days. So, sitting for, say, 4.8 hours a day,X15, then get 10 hours of flight pay = 72 + 10.....= 82 hours of pay, versus a flat 64 hours. Thats some ChaChing! Any other questions?
