3. All these SS are crap bid packet trips. Why fly a long, crappy trip (that also reduces your chances of 23m7, see above) when there are so many easy, broken trips going out via QS/IA? You can fly a crappy 3-4-4-3 4 day trip or 2, 2 leg QS on the same days for the same pay.
I like the silver slips...yeah the trips suck but at least I know what I'm doing often weeks in advance and I can plan around it instead of waiting for last minute GS/QS.
