All of long island to Albany, NY to Reading, PA to Wilmington, DE to Atlantic City to Springfield, MA
I don’t want it changed. I was responding above to someone who was saying CS would have to assign an airport in NY if we went to a hard callout time. My point was IF we agreed to a hard callout time, it needs to be the pilot, not CS that gets to pick the airport assigned. The “should” in my original comment was a typo and meant to be “could”. I didn’t notice it until after the edit window was closed. As in it could go one of a couple ways.
why is LA #2? Isn’t that base the “promptly available” measured to LAX only? I’m not based out there so I’m not positive.
