There have been some days in NYC where there are more pilots on Short Call than trips originating on the fleet.

Rough numbers. NYC 7ERA. November bid pack. 690 trips.
That's 23 rotations a day on average starting.

We've been running 30+ on SC most days.

We could cover every single trip in the bid pack with SCs.

28 on SC today.
All due respect, why get creative to solve this? If the company was following the contract by awarding YS SC, their incentive to use SC goes down. It's already on paper, just need to get it grieved.
