And the FO I was with said he did the same about two weeks prior.
Did it pay 10 hours? Cuz if it did.... I'm down.
always been a dilema with small stations. Mainline aircraft in late at night....back out early in the morn and the rest of the flights are RJs. This,of course, results in 30+ hour layovers in Sioux Falls, Des Moines, and 10buck2. High speeds/ Stand ups are a waaay more efficient way to solve this problem. At the old U, I can't recall ever actually seeing a stand up, and I know that you would have been ran out on a rail for suggesting them. lol.. I guess we use them in Guam on a regular basis, but you get 1hr pay to 1.5 duty rig or 5 hours min. Not 5 per day.
