They keep saying it would create longer trips but fail to mention - it could eliminate planned 2-4 hour sits in CLT/DFW (that are the primary reason for 11-12hr duty days). I also don't buy APA'a argument that "1:1 RIG will cause you to work more days per month." That's completely baseless. Most of us lineholders credit only 5:15 per day so the number of days to meet the LCW won't change because of the 1:1 RIG.
A simple analysis of our trip length vs DAL/UAL will prove or disprove their point. I wonder why we haven't seen anything like that?
