I would take that trade as well. The three hour sits are rediculous, we might as well just have "junior manning" because every captain I fly with gets reassigned at least once during a paring. Now I know that the airplanes have to fly to make money so that they can pay us and I understand reassignments sometimes just happen, but with these brilliant schedules its set up so they always have hot reserve captains and its total BS. Rigs and cancellation pay would fix a lot of that problem.
