Your framing of this as an operational concern is disingenuous. The real concern to you is cost. That is why people are accusing you of being a 4th floor shill.
For any given trip, there are far more pilots willing to fly for 200% than 100%. Especially given 8 hours notice. It’s when the company attempts to wait until 2 hours prior to jump to QS that operational problems arise.
I don't care about the operation or the cost to the company. I'm concerned about the trip getting to the people who want to fly them and make money.
Commuters can't get easy OOBWS nor far out GS that helped their QOL/pay, In base guys can't get GS far out for QOL/pay. Nobody can get OOBGS that help with QOL/pay.
If you guys think QS is the end all be all, why don't we just eliminate all steps of coverage and just have 1 step inside 18 hours...QS call at 8 hours prior to the trip.
Maybe you guys think differently, but I prefer not to have trips covered at the 8 hour point. The further out the better.
