It would be nice to see some improvement in the efficiency of trips. I see a lot more soft time and short flying days than expected. This is not every day or most days, and many pilots would find a light schedule like that attractive. Some want as much soft time or shortest days possible.

Example: 1 hour flight, 4 hour sit, and 1.5 hour deadhead. For the day. I actually was at work for 6 and a half hours, but only flew 1 and was paid for 4.

Trip and duty rigs would inventivise the company to give efficient and productive trips. Efficient trips would mean more time off for pilots (but busier days at work), or same time off and more block/credit. Everyone profits.

The schedulers are great people who work hard, this is no disparagement to them.
