the only thing correct about this is instructors are having to be taken off for covid. We are working less now than we were in the summer, far less. At least on the ER, SLIs have always done the 200s, so that's nothing new. There is also no such thing as instructor premium pay.

NSLI job posting hit yesterday or the day before. You know, if the VEOPs miss the place.

Good amount of retirees working at DPS. Great instructors that still have a passion for the job.

If anyone has good corporate travel data, it's Delta Management. Very encouraging news

Thus, the rumor about making the ER (757/767-300) a domestic fleet.
