Pretty much everyone at my Unit comes in on their days off and only comes to a few select scheduled drills per year. I haven't showed up as MIL in the past few years with exception of deployments, so I don't think the staffing list is a good representation at all. With pay so much better at the majors, we are having issues staffing weekly flying schedules because no one is willing to drop MIL with exception of a couple.
