That route is flown primarily by Endeavor crews, not Delta. You may want to ask over on their forum. They’d have a better idea of JS utilization and if there are potential weight & balance restrictions.

All crj 900. One jump seat. Never any weight restrictions.

Last few times I've flown it there's been a few empty and the js has always been open. About 5-6 times over the last 2 months.

Little break from contract talks but I’m shocked that delta has decided to defend its turf in dtw by adding dtw-kef next summer on a 757

I know that for 330 guys we have to get a lot more than 100 hrs to consolidate with the bunk factor thrown in. Is the actual hours that count toward consolidation available on I-crew anywhere? Have not been successful with the "hunt and peck" method.

Thanks Scoop

Go to Icrew, Personnel, Qualifications, Block Hours Flown…lower left hand side there is a button for consolidation. Hope that makes sense.

More generically, it's 2/3 for a 3-man or 1/2 fro a 4-man. I.e., on a 15 hr 3-man operation, you'd get consolidation credit for 10 hrs. On a 20 hr 4-man, you'd get 10 hrs consolidation credit

That is close. Block time - 1 hour divided by 2 or 3 depending on crew the add the hour back. Everybody is in the cockpit for one hour per flight so all four members get credit. At least that’s what the FOM formula says.

Correct. Being conservative just use 2/3 or 1/2 for planning and then gain an extra bit per leg.
