Exactly. I think we should have the SOT and the APCOT (Airline Pilot Central Optomization Team) work in conjunction to improve stuff.

Here are a few no cost items.

1. Reserve availability list that shows every day of the month not just two.

2. The ability to look at who has a WS, GS, or YS submitted and what the parameters of the requests are.

3. The ability to request SC preferences more specific than AM/PM since some bases only have AM SC times.

4. A list of who has requested SC for any given day.

Possible small cost items.

1. The ability to pick up a trip in open time any time during the month that fits your reserve days if you are under guarantee for the month.

2. A firm % of guys on SC based on whatever they use to figure out how many reserves they need. (block hours or lines not sure what they use)

3. The ability to move X days on reserve so you can have a minimum of 48 hours on reserve instead of 72. I would like 24 hours, but realize that makes you kinda useless most days.

Possible large cost items.

1. 75 hour guarantee for reserve guys

2. One more day off per month on reserve.

3. Same work and pay rules as lineholders.
