It usually only works when the trips for next month disappear from opentime. I've been checking periodically today but haven't seen it yet in my category. December is by far the most complicated bid month, so I'd be shocked if the Bs came out any earlier than tomorrow.

Cmon guys,

Lets try to at least limit the the thread drifts to something Aviation related, or College football, or even Miatas, but please lay off the religion.

Thanks Scoop

You missed chickens!! Chickens are always approved. Like ‘why did the chicken poop on the Miata?’

What makes December so complicated?

Too many block hours for not enough pilots with everyone bidding for 24/25 off.

Not enough unstacking in the world can creat a workable solution. Let the SNAFU begin early.

Pulling the previous month wide report off of DL net and changing the month, in this case- NOV to DEC, in the web address. Sometimes pulls it up in the hours before they are posted with links.

It at least gives the pilot group a glimpse into who he is because quite frankly most of us don’t know anyone outside of our own reps.

His letter was very good, but whenever someone throws out that they went to HARVARD I give them the immediate eye roll of death.

Sounds like it will be him vs Kramer who is a wonderful pilot advocate but is def a bit disgruntled in general. I think we’d be OK with either.

Kramer is first and foremost a pilot advocate. I was very happy to see his name come up.

And the 31st or no carry out and a super back loaded schedule.

Yes, but on a positive note December, as of yet remains unaffected by leap year, so we got that going for us - which is nice. :D

When the next months open time disappears, head into Icrew and then the flight time log page. It is somewhat tedious as you have to search via rotation date, but it’s always been accurate for me. Usually happens well before the URL trick described above becomes available.
