I bid about 40% in the right seat of the 727. I am about 35% in my seat and about 72% in the company.
Next month I will DH on delta to an East Coast city on Sun and operate from there to Ind on Mon, Tue, Wed and Thu night. I will spend about 4 hours on the ground in Ind and fly back to the same city. We leave the hotel about 8pm and get back about 6am. On Fri morning I will DH on Delta back home. Fedex usually covers 100% of my DH costs.
I will do this twice next month and get paid about 66 hours. This type of schedule probably represents 15% of the total FDX lines. I prefer this type of schedule to one that operates through MEM. To each his own.
