I can live without payback days as a reserve pilot, but there needs to be some additional form of flexibility for dropping reserve days when the months staffing isn’t great. To me that’s where the payback days really are beneficial.
I disagree with you. Here's the issue...if PB days go away reserves will be flying their butts off on reserve days. Nobody is going to want to pick up a trip for double pay in addition to flying a full reserve schedule of the crap trips people have dropped (speaking from a NB pilot point of view). Why side with the company on this? It's a massive concession.
