What doesn't the company like about what we can do to our schedule? I think they like having a green matrix. Pilots certainly do, trip drops approved, trades approved etc, etc. If they didn't like it then they wouldn't approve the drops.

Fact! I took a peak at reserve utilization in a couple bases, saw a few 0/0. Zero short calls and zero hours.

Oh we'll be getting paid (empty lines). I saw the empty line offering and busted out in an Irish step dance! We'll just be living the river boat gambler life style, betting a trip/trips will become available. I hope it's offered next month too!😎
