Man, I DO NOT agree with this. So many good LOA's. Some with unintended consequences to the company.

I've found 16-01 pretty handy on numerous occasions. And 13-13/16-02 has made me quite a bit of money (and the company would like to end those too).

As far as unintended consequences to the company, I used LOA 13-13 to take flying from an FO who had been subjected to forced flying on reserve due to another LOA (LOA has since expired). He later told me, he flew less than half what they had 'forced' on him because I wasn't the only one using LOA 13-13 to exploit the company for more money.

I'm sure others have similar stories where they figure out how to use these LOAs to their advantage.
