Ugg... I'm looking for Line Production Floor. Where is that? It's not a term I'm familiar with.
I just use bidnav each month, and it spits me out a line. Out of curiosity, I just looked through my BES award package, and it looks like the majority of folks who had 2 weeks of vacation this month also had high time lines of about 89 hrs... does this mean that we're all "donating our time?"
To clarify, in a month that one has vacation, one should consider getting a min time line in order to avoid any "free flying," and then don't pick up any trips?
This whole thing couldn't be any more confusing. It would seem like it's in our best interest to clearly spell out how to avoid this.
Thanks for your insights.

Your MPG should be 2:20 times 17, which is 39:40. So, since you had a very high PBS award, you already are assigned all the free flying. Not sure what your minimum bid could have been for your BES, so can't say how much free flying you are doing, but it is likely substantial! If your Line Production Floor was 73 hours (for instance) then you are doing about 12 hours of flying for free!
But, if you want to pick up additional flying now, that will all be on top of the 89:54, so at least it won't be anymore for free.
