as far as MDG, NW had that before BK. Being wary of the consequences of MDG is smart, but the idea as a whole it’s bad just because regionals use it doesn’t follow for me. I would be curious to compare the results of trips produced by the following 3 scenarios
- current
- keep ADG 5:15 and raise MDG to 3:00
- get rid of ADG and raise MDG to 4:30
I haven't seen anyone mention the rigs yet. I would assume a modest boost to the duty rig would help keeps a cap on stringing multiple long days together if we also bumped up ADG?
