The company figured out EXACTLY how extract more work out of fewer pilots and did so pretty cheaply. It’s working...
Although last tour for me was a whopping 11.7 hours of credit. No fatigues. No write ups. They crew swapped us rather than let us hit the magic number. What. Ever.
What fleet are you on? I do find it interesting they aren't going to type guys into the Longitude from Latitude when both cockpits are extremely similar and both have the same instruments, that would really save them some $$? SWA has guys flying 3 different 73's? AQP is awesome, very low stress!
