I don't know what the folks in planning are doing but the directives they receive certainly can't be helping you folks out and we could trace a lot of the issues all the way up the organizational chart.

On a similar note, I still can't understand why it is that with such an enormous percentage of pilots on reserve (even with LC1 & LC2) that we're burning through the entire list EVERY DAY. Are there that many displacements, sick calls and ferry flights?

As for the LC1/LC2....I can see where that doesn't help you staff when it's most needed, even the long call reservists are being used past 75 hours/month. And oh yeah...love the avatar. Maiden.
