Yes I did, and that's exactly what I meant. Maybe he or his family had a medical reason to do so. I've already read of several pilots on our board that floated due to that, and our union president gave them a pass at the beginning. So that's why we should always give them the benefit of doubt before slamming them.

Oh come on aa73! Just admit it, you just aren't as smart as AF. But hey, we can't all know everything, just him! I don't need the cash from float, I don't have any family issues that makes me need the time in reserve(for now) and want more time off. So I didn't float. But I don't know everyone's circumstances so I'm not going to throw rocks. Not even at those young, healthy F/Os that floated all available vacation. |

He wasn't responding to me, but I agree no one can know everything like me[emoji41] |
I usually give everybody the benefit of a doubt, but his sudden silence is suspicious.

I also lean towards benefit of the doubt.
I guess I just don't understand how a person with issues at home benefits from floating? Is it to get paid an extra 5 hours a month? Or to be able to drop trips using FMLA and get paid? If it's the former, and you're a captain that can't live on 73 hours a month, you have some serious financial issues that might require a change in lifestyle. If it's the latter, that makes some sense. |

When you have a gazillion post over multiple web boards how committed are you to that sick person?
Funny thing is he popped up on another thread but he's silent on this one lol. |
