TBone,
Don't know if I have created a bad name for myself or not but I finshed a little over 120 hours on the MD88 and started MIL Leave from Oct 15th thru probably June 15th or so. I did the Palace Chase gig and so I kinda need to start training on the new AF aircraft.

No one at Delta batted an eye about me taking leave so soon or for how long.

And the MIL leave during the month thing works. I took half of the month of OCT and I ended up with a line for two weeks. (The month before I was the last guy in the category)
