At least all of your MD11 reserve guys are being protested from having to fly these horrific pairings.

Yeah in other words no one has to Fly one INVOLUNTARILY!
This is pathetic.

BTW Nice work MD11fr8, it's just a shame some of your fellow crewmembers are making you fill in so many RED names. Thanks for the effort anyway.

Yea, it's a real shame, and it is pathetic! MD11fr8 has done what only one other has, and that was Hap Carpenter, did, post names.

Now we can only hope that this was an oversite (?) by those crew members, and the next months will tell the story.

For now and in the future, thanks for the effort, and I hope it pays off.

Follow the bouncing "red" ball.

Repeat after me--MD11Fr8Dog did not post any names on this forum. He just posted links so the computer savy person could see for themselves how fatiguing and unsafe these trips are.

Remember putting names on here without consent will get a very valuable post deleted.

Uh, which name did I post? Just quote the name I posted to prove your point!

You're welcome! I was kinda stoked on Thrusday night when I updated, but I guess the burp in FOCUS gave me a false sense that there would be lots still in OT.

Yea, I screwed that up, so let me offically apologize, MD11Fr8Dog DID NOT publish any names, and again, sorry!

Instead of trying to explain myself, and make matters worse, I'll say thank you to all for the efforts and the posts, and thanks for keeping me straight, just a little frustration with the fliers.

Will Rogers was right....."never pass up the opportunity to keep your (me) mouth shut".

MD11Fr8Dog, Thanks for the legwork.
With a list that long, I knew 2 guys flying DP. And they were guys I smile and am glad to see in Ops. So I just company e-mailed them and asked if they knew the trips were disputed. Nothing accusatory or threatening, just "did you know?". One guy said didn't know, expressed guilt and would swap out. I just e-mailed the other guy this morning.
So do I need to call my lawyer now or will my ACP be in touch?
Anyway, no matter what the guys do, it lets them know that people are watching and judging them by their actions.

I also emailed 2 of my bubbas, both admitted goofing it, and one has already his dropped pairing, the other said he will drop or trade it (I haven't checked yet).
