Default 75 Bidpack Comments

Wanted to bring the 75 Bidpack commentaries into a more appropriate thread.

Hard to say Worst Bidpack ever with the 76 Indy flights, amongst others, returned to the Bidpack and the expansion of lines\opportunities.

There are some more 3 leg nights, but hard to quantify whether there are more\less than there used to be.

Many of the same routings (FWA-SBN for example), remain the same, and others have been changed.

The one thing I think is still true is the bottom 15-30% have to choose between a crappy line in hopes of making it better, Reserve and deal with commuting to Memphis, or a roll the dice with VTO hoping enough people Use their Vacations or Protect Min Days Off to get some decent flying.

The thing that's most different is most of those hired in the last few years have minimal experience with healthy manning, and how that impacts on Open Time and trip trades
