Why do you think the majority of reserve drops are to actually drop? Reserve pilots drop reserve to grab trips. Maybe the union could verify if we asked them, but I'd put it at 8/10s of pilots (CA and FO) are drop/pickups. In MSP I'd expect a reversal of the norm, (pilots dropping to drop and stay off), but MSP is still our smallest base and least able to throw the curve off.
