There has to be something better that would be beneficial to both parties. A more efficient reserve would save the company money and less people on reserve should mean less time on reserve as a pilot which I think most people would see as an improvement.
Flying is seasonal, employment at envoy isn't. We are way overstaffed for Jan February March, but not so much for the summer. Last summer there were NO OFE reserves for about a month. None, not one. They plan to stretch our staffing thin again this summer. Reserve goes in cycles as to how many people are on it. The best reserve system is the one your on the least
