Ugh. What were we thinking? :wink:

Can you tell me where in the new PWA it is? I'm having a bit of trouble finding it. Thanks

So am I. Been looking since I posted that. Old live contract did not have the loa in it either.

I got some extra bling on top of my guarantee in Nov 2010 for this very reason- I got assigned an MED trip with 24 hours when it had been in open time the whole month (I wonder why no one picked it up? :D ).

2 days over Thanksgiving on the Amazon for me that year!

Well, I've finally found a couple of references. With this new PWA, I've been contemplating bidding reserve (really junior reserve) on the 330 if I can hold it some time in the next year but don't want to go to Africa all the time. Since I'm a SEA guy and would not bid the 330 anywhere else, I wonder how often SEA reserves are called on to cover out of base Africa trips. I guess I could avoid it by not getting the theater qual.:) That is unless I got it on a TOE. DOH!:eek: Anyway, I'm just what if'n right now.

The best thing about bidding it is I might get to fly with Ferd!:D

Sad fact of the evening: No cerveza for 80 on a 24 hour layover in Mexico. It's election day, so no cerveza for anyone. :(

That hit reminds me of the bimbo going into the wall behind that JetBlue takeoff in St Maartin.
