My leg so getting ready to brief I get notified from ops that I'm to go operate another flight. Thus is 35 min to push. I make some calls told I need to fly it. No rest issues so off I go.



I'm at layover now it's a 3 day trip. We flew 8.2 block today. 11 hour layover to a 3 leg 7.6 block hour tomorrow.



Why do we bid???



Hats off to you HBTH I agree with your statement.
