I sometimes bid 7 on, 2 off, 7 on, 1 off, 4 on rest of month off and start that cadence early in the month. They pretty much can only DHD you on day 7.
Could you elaborate a little more on how this works? I apologize—I’m a little dense and definitely not experienced with FAR 117. I understand you’re bidding to shield from utilization but I don’t fully understand how that works. I definitely don’t understand why they can only deadhead you on day 7.
