Yes, it is. Which is why that should be changed. Right now the contract REQUIRES they build siloed assignments.
20-K-6-c Short Call assignments shall be built for a designated silo.
Note the implication—assignments are built for silos, but not for a reserve pilot. Instead, silos are built for reserves by swing shift schedulers.
I think it would benefit us greatly to change this language. Others may agree, others may not. The leverage might be that they also might like to simplify the whole process. Build no-silo assignments, anyone can pick them up, anyone can be assigned them in FIFO order. Otherwise, add language that SC/FS "shall be built before 1100".
