Very Nice!

No pilot requests, in either seat, for any DPs during the Feb VTO build process

Let's keep the same resolute focus on safety after Open Time is released.

Well unfortunately a certain 757 CA couldn't restrain himself again. 4 of 5 pick ups by the same person.

Yes - the time he spends at work is quite prolific

Known entity -- as a DP flyer

Gratefully, 99.5% of the 757 crew force has shown greater focus, greater judgement and greater restraint

fill me in on the DP process if the same trip is disputed every month. Is it just to keep it out of the regular bid pack so the reservists can operate it? seems like QRO has been disputed for one reason or another ever since the 727.

Just before peak the company changed it back to the current trip as a one day trip including two legs to QRO with still the short layover in QRO. It's more productive this way, just not as safe. Remember, safety is paramount unless it affects productivity.
