Spool down turbo, wasn't trying to be "that technical" about it.

People often confuse 24 hours free from duty with a "day off". Especially when there in NO provision in a CBA that distinguish the two.

And for the OP, I wouldn't count on scheduling being that flexible at all. Especially if you get hired at a smaller company, or the domicile you get is small and doesn't have much flying to trade/drop for.

Let alone the typical regional type schedule where you may have 1 day off but at a minimum need 2 to prevent 30/7 issued. Notice I said typical, I KNOW there are some super inefficient places out there that scatter 1 day off between a 12-14 hour 4 days (as an example) regularly.
