I like the above reserve rates....

Today As you look at the reserves this month. You will see a large group flying close to guarantee. And having sat reserve for 1-6 days.
That’s up to 6 days being on call for free.

Reserve needs to be looked at per calendar day.

Example:

Doug Parker asks us to be on call right now for 19 days a month. In exchange he will pay us 76 hours a month.
But what if we fly 8 hours in one day? We are basically flying 3:38min for free. Anything really over 4:22 is free flying

Is it acceptable to fly for free?
