Quicks slips are showing in icrew now.

But also showing "MUST BE REG AT LEAST ONE DAY" which is not how this is supposed to work.

And no QS under RES Slips either.

Grab screenshot, DART it, because if it's not working for all, it's not contractually compliant and pushes back the sick lookback start date.

The sick lookback is currently held up by micrew sick/well automation, which is still not fixed.

It’s fixed.

Out of curiosity I checked the daily coverage help screen to see what code they would use for quick slips. Guess they didn’t think that far. Q is already taken. Z is available…. QS and a number is probably too many characters and would lead to another IT meltdown.

But there weren’t hundreds of pilots in category with blanket out of base white slips in. Back before ARCOS (and really after ARCOS but before Auto Accept) you didn’t have a slip in unless you actually wanted to fly something (otherwise you’d be constantly getting called for trips you couldn’t or wouldn’t do).

He's also forgetting that the GS and IAs in the past weren't proffers.

And we have thousands and thousands of more pilots.

Yes, but…. Even with ARCOS and AA, until about 6-9 months ago, none of this was a problem. At least, anything like the 20-50x scale it is today.

IMO there are two things that led us here. To a lesser extent, the unintended effects of 2-day coverage, which set set the stage for the second: the obliteration of batch sizes.

The genie might be out of the bottle, I don’t know if going back to batch sizes would return pilot ‘slip behavior’ to the stable place this was in 24-25 (in terms of trip coverage).

thousands and thousands??? I think we have 2500ish more pilots now than when ARCOS was implemented. I could be wrong, my old timer memory not being what is used to be.
