Cool, but that's no longer reality. Auto Accept also wasn't meant to be used in the manner pilots are using it now.

The pilot group AND CS have crossed a Rubicon. IA's are not going back to the old days of hunting the plug down at the jet bridge. And even if scheduling walked back the batch size deal it's not going to stop pilots from submitting slips on an attempt to farm 23M7. The effort to reward ratio is too good.

This is going to lead to a reworking of the coverage ladder, and we handed them auto accept when we took the QS. The other 16,000 pilots not in this forum are happy to stop paying a few dozen 23M7 farmers to go back to the old status quo of Arcos calling every now and then with a GS.

A lot of people here may disagree, but the average joe flying the line thinks the farmers sitting at home with no intent to fly are part of the problem.
