sub
If you have a 5 day footprint....and you (for example) want to fly the first one - but dont like the second trip of the substitution....you can elect not to do it.
BUT you will lose everything from that point on with respect to the original footprint. if you foot print was 32 ours of pay and you flew the first 6 hour trip of sub - but then elected not to do the next....the remaining 26 hours of the footprint are done. You can not elect to just skip one trip.
so basically - you are hosed.
Long Sub windows stink.
Hope it helps
