Also, if you are flight planned at 1:20 and it takes 2 hours to do the flight, you get paid 1:20, not 2:00. I'm seeing more and more flights out of airports like SFO, LAX etc getting filed without SIDs and STARs now....magic?
It's only been a month and I'm already tired of hearing things like "why don't we write that up later?" and "if it weren't for the $118 an hour, I probably wouldn't go".
I would have been happier if the union just kept the same money we already make and made real scheduling limits.
Well. They do have a business to run. They’re relying on the “if” which generates more business and when that happens, it goes into your pockets. Nothing nefarious on their part.
