And since we have a “Call Me First List” I easily credited over 100+ hours a month because I would get called regardless of block hours already flown.

93% in base got me weekends off (Friday - Sunday on certain weeks) and my preferred RAP. Flew a ton when I wanted to, sat on the couch when I didn’t (for the most part anyways). QOL was… wait for it… great.
