You couldn't be more wrong or just naive about who you work for. In a world where you don't have Bendo you might be right. Right now the Company wants 6 day blocks the same as we have now. So it's not really PBS. The Union and the Company are arguing right now about this issue. What is the min days on for res????? Company says 6, Union says 3. Don't think for one minute just because you have the ability to input a value that the software doesn't already have a hard command build in. The fact is Bendo is mad that the gains aren't being seen with PBS. Navblue told Bendo you need a fleet of 300 before you'll see any gains. He asked why did we give them the 5hr average and better trip rig if the company didn't get any gains from PBS??? That's a matter of paying attention and understanding a mathematical world. This is another example of why we should never give on the 4 days off min. A senior Eastern pilot told me you can give money back but you NEVER give work rules back! Once their gone you'll never get them back. Ask the AA, DAL and UAL about their crappy work rules!
