Smh..... I have, as a PIC, picked up SIC shifts in my base literally within the past two months. Hell, an out of base PIC picked up one here the night before last!
oh really? Inquiring minds would love to know what base that is. Every PIC at my base is under min guarantee, has been for months. I guess there is a massive disparity between bases then, perhaps it’s time for me to transfer. As for picking up SIC, there have been numerous emails about how we are not to pick them up unless operationally necessary and with management approval. It is almost never operationally necessary sooo..yeah, there are not “plenty” of opportunities to pick up extra. Between the schedule and the open time there are at best “limited” opportunities to pick up extra.
