Which is great if you live in base and like to work extra, but I think we need to make sure our commuters are taken care of too. I'm not one now, but I have been and probably will be again someday.

This is true if picking up turns is your thing

Agree.

I also agree with acessential if you are just pointing out something that you are benefiting from. However, IF ACessential is trying to advocate ADTG with his example, I cannot agree. Advocating adtg with picking up extra flying is silly to me. We should be fighting for a method that awards us the most credit during the pbs bidding period, because that is what will determine days off.

Again, ACessential, not sure of your intentions behind your post, I apologize if that was not your intention to advocate adtg.

I'm confused.
Why don't I get a call from Compass for an interview? I applied 2 times in the past 2 years and never got a single call.

-no arrest history
-no driving tickets in the past 15 years
-3500 hours CFI
-undergrad and a grad degree.

Is Compass slowing down hiring?

Thanks

It's not slowing down.

What are reserve times for lax looking like for someone who has an early February class?

The adtg can give you the most credit during pbs. Without it, we could see our pbs credit go down if the company modifies pairings to eliminate the 4:00 add pay/credit on a calendar day with no duty period. The adtg also gives us the most credit during the regular portion of the month, since the company never seems to build pairings during the month, that would benefit from the 4:00 add pay/credit on a calendar day with no duty period. Partial transactions also benefit from the adtg. Pilots helping other pilots and those dropping flying.

The adtg prevents anyone with a 76 hour line to go below 14 days off. Without the adtg, pilots can receive 11 day off lines with as little as 75 hours.

However, one should never say they have ever benefited from the adtg, because that is heresy. Typical41 and his pals will burn you on a stake.

The adtg has greatly helped commuters. At least 14:15 for a 3 day with a 2000 report and a 0800 finish... sign me up. With the 4:00 add pay/credit on a calendar day with no duty period, that could pay as little as 8:00.

Wouldn't say I'm advocating ATDG, I've just personally been able to benefit from it picking up short turns while living in base. Trying to look at this thing from every angle though and it's tough for me to pick a side

PBS trips for pilots with training. Don't think adtg will help you in training? Last I checked we don't do training in our new largest base, LAX. Here is an actual 1 day training event for a pilot having to go to MSP/STL that takes 3 days to complete. Without the adtg it pays 12:00, with 14:15. For a 2 day event, you could encompass 4 days. Without the adtg it pays 16:00, with 19:00.

Mon DH 2168 LAX-MSP 1305 1841 0253 Duty Credit :0400
Tue MSP-MSP 0830 1700 Training Credit: 0400
Wed DH 2168 MSP-LAX 0917 1130 0322 Duty Credit 0400
T.A.F.B.: 4710
Total Duty/Trip Credit: 1200
adtg additive: 0215
Total Trip Credit with ADTG: 1415

But you know this will never happen with all the pilots out in LAX. They will never have to train.
