PBS here is horrible. The coverage day thing blows my mind.
Agreed. With the crappiest line possible you can probably still move things around with TTS to get the random Tuesday off that PBS wouldn't give you even though 10 pilots junior to you randomly got it without asking.
A line gives one significantly more control over pay, days off and type of trips compared to either type of reserve.
The key point to BusBoi's question is if one could be a junior lineholder she ABSOLUTELY could not be a senior SC. The senior reserves not working are thousands of numbers senior to the junior lineholders.
