Start using the “f” word, because the rotations I’m seeing are completely awful.
Long days and short layovers.
I guess when we have a guy from the regionals running flight ops, it’s not surprising to see us being ran like the regionals.

The practice of 3+ leg over 8 hours block days needs to stop before something bad happens.

And I was at fault.
She kept asking what is f.
Then I told her I said duck, I said f is not a real word. She was content. Didnt say the word again.

When I heard them say “we’ve limited 320 pairings to 3 per day” it sounded wonderful. We know now, it’s awful. Why was it important to limit the 320 to 3 legs and not other fleets? Is 3 legs just the optimum number of legs for the 320? To remedy this, I’m moving in base, but a year of pain will come before that.
