I call BS on this. The more expensive it is for the company, the less likely that it will continue to be built that way. If every eligible pilot picked up the DPs, then mil leaved them, then someone picked it up and called in sick for it, then the reservist on the trip called in fatigued, then we would see an end to these trips.
