If you work the same hours per month, you get a monthly pay raise by working more days in the month. 84 hours of pay is 12 days on the 777 and 16 days on the 73N.
So the denominator in the % calculation is the actual size of the category after the bid, not the staffing formula number? For example LAX 777 is shrinking by attrition. If someone bids 50%, will it be 50% of the category size after attrition or 50% of the 22.3.D. number? The number on 23.D.3 is the current size, but they have announced plans not to backfill, thus shrinking by attrition.
It will be based on the actual category size when the dust settles from the AE run and would thus account for those who have bid out as well as those contingent vacancies not back-filled. 22.D.3 is only a forecast.
