It would also be rare to have time left.

I haven't finished reading the whole TA, but for the first half that I've read, nearly every single thing besides pay rates is below industry standard. And we're one of the most profitable airlines in the entire world. Not good, not good.
It doesn't even state that we receive guaranteed profit sharing. We only get it IF the company decides to give it to the other employees. And what's to stop the company from reducing the schedules below 81 hours, thus negating the 130% override? They could easily hire more pilots, reduce the hours on each of our schedules which gets rid of Mission Mode. Then kiss our 130% and 200% overrides goodbye. I'm not seeing anything in this TA that prevents the company manipulating the schedules. Who wrote this thing?

Reserve rules are laughable....
scope allows for a regional model if I understand it correctly.

The true unknown is the PBS system...while it would be great to see actual line bidding, senior guys not having to deal with reserve on their schedule is a nice plus, which will increase their days off, which would pretty much remove much of the possibility of merely having single days off. Home study pay...lots of little nuggets in there to increase credit hours.
