ALPA volunteers and staff on the Scheduling team have been terrific in my experience. The end game is finding out if others think that we should have more of them and/or if we should reinstate the phone line for all questions. I personally believe the current system is worse than the previous one. Tunes, you defending yourself isn’t necessary. And suggesting that if I volunteered my time, everything would be fixed is in err. If you haven’t seen a submission from me it’s because I’m waiting for the rotation that I finished to be “Closed” by the company. To see the final result for pay. Because I know I’ll have to research the latest way to make a submission and then work to explain the question in a way that makes sense. That’s easy 30 minutes. End of the world? No. But talking to an ALPA scheduler would be much more efficient and a nice thing. In essence, the new system is more cumbersome to the pilot and I’m sure is resulting in fewer inquires which was probably the point. Probably great for you, not great for me. Again, the funding should be there to stand up a team to answer calls. Have you ever been getting ready to text someone and you realized it’s just too long or complex and just decided to call that person instead. That’s pretty much how I feel about scheduling issues. Not a fan of the current system.
