I'm not trying to get into a shooting match over OT. I never once condemned those who do pick it up. I simply said ask yourself a question. If you take the offensive, then that means to me that perhaps you went against your conscience. This is not about UG. This is about getting everyone back to work.

"Most lines have at least 14 days off and there are a bunch of 15-18 day off lines. Additionally, many trips finish early allowing for a turn to be added on. No, they could easily cover that flying done as OT. In fact, most of the flying is blocked and fairly little OT is available and there are plenty of lineholders available for JM or EX." -EagleFly-

(sorry, haven't posted on here enough to figure out how to quote multiple posters.) But don't forget the part in our contract that requires management to keep Eagle properly staffed. They can't just go around JMing pilots all day. Even an increase in frequency of JMs and someone's going to do something.
