Since this trip would start Nov 1 - the max time I have is 28:17 (I have vacation starting on the 4th). The original WS that was 23K'd started October and was a spill. But the spill time into November was only one let back from FRA. And the WS I just requested was only 12 hours, so that's still well below the max pick-up. Can't seem to make it make sense! I also noticed that the trip was taken off the open board and assigned to someone else before they rolled the cards at noon - so I thought perhaps it went as "recovery flying" to someone else. But then this contractual time thing showed up as a reason?? Scratching head over here!

Well, if that 28:17 is your max pickup for November, I'd add the time for the leg back in Nov plus any credit time to the trip you were trying to whiteslip and see what you get. Less than 28:17 and I'd be scratching my head and making some query's to either crew scheduling or Dalpa.

After what I've done to that thing with a MD88, it is hard to imagine a mere Barge could leave a mark.

Bwahahahahaha!!!!! You're not the only one. I've personally contributed to lowering the TDZE of LGA runways.

After having never landed on 13, I got to a few weeks ago. The TDZE must have been higher than the others, so I did my part to lower it and even the airport out.

My first trip to LaGuardia was in heavy rain on the visual to 31.

When we reported we couldn't see the airport anymore, they told us to square up our base.

Very strong, resisted the impact of many DAL DC-10's,but the pilings are more than likley much deeper than planned. I hope that wasn't a Trainer barge....

Oh I've done that! ILS 22 circle to 13. They didn't like my circle either.

"Many" DL DC-10s?

Didn't DL only fly those things for a total of 4 or 5 years? (L1011 holdover and then a couple years of Western ones)
