It appears that scheduling still manually sets the batch size for QS. So it seems like there could be times that it doesn’t actually blast the entire category.

if only they started coverage earlier. It’s almost like the 0200 phone calls are on purpose. Also, has anyone noticed that trips are getting shopped around to different bases, ie a dtwnb 0xxx will have a 1leg day1 which later becomes an atl 0xxx rot with a dh to the dtw 1leg day1. Foul: once they pick the domicile for the 0xxx rotation they should have to keep it there- quit fishing the different bases for the sucker who will fly your short notice trip as a ws, only to send it out as qs at 0200.
its time to put out the gumpster fire.

The company is not paying 4X to cover trips. The only time the company pays 4X is if the invoke 23m7 and skip PAST QS to something else (generally IA). A standard 23m7 pays single pay to whoever was skipped (regardless of what step was skipped) and double pay to the QS pilot who flies the trip. Skipping QS pays single pay to both the originally skipped pilot and the skipped QS pilot, and double pay to the operating pilot. While lots of IAs have still been going out, at least in my category, each time it has been because QS was run but there were not takers. In that case QS was not skipped so the IA does not required 4X pay.

My guess is they pay the skipped pilot when they get called out on it or if the scheduler is honest just like it has always been.
