I will tell you, that no matter how bad our current recovery flying is.........it's MUCH better than the POS we had at NWA. Steenlend and the boys had it where you were on the hook (as in IN BASE RESERVE and first out of the box) for the entire recovery period. Also, they could give you as many trips as they wanted to fill the period. The only up side the union got for us was positive space up and back and hotel rooms if they had you sit in base.

It should be a total release from duty, but trust me, it could be worse
