Is there any info out there that gives the average number of short calls assigned per individual via base, position and aircraft? Thx

Ask and you shall receive. I'm not in to mods which require the FAA form 337's on women (until needed). So here, a couple of natural c's.

Deltanet, Pilot Resources and Scheduling, on the left side just below the shortcuts for icrew/ecrew/paycheck/automated Manuals & Bulletins, click on "January Short Calls"

iceman,

That list is supposedly the "target SCs" for the respective month. Crew Schedulers don't use it, & many don't even know it exists. I'd take it with a grain of salt.

Also, there isn't any statistical info out there showing average # of SCs assigned to individuals.

Iceman, sometimes there are twice as many people on SC than the list would suggest. And sometimes the times are not adhered to. Even the ALPA guys will tell you it's a "guideline". :rolleyes: I'm always on reserve (in base) and never look at the "targeted list". It just frustrated me!

I get it that its just a guideline, however it would be nice if we had some statistical data to provide some transparency.

Look at which data? How many SC are sat? How close to the published times they are? Yeah, it would be neat to see - but IROPS always change the game. Is 5 reserves enough for a line of thunderstorms? 10? 12? What about winter weather? I get that the company needs flexibility - and the list is a step forward, but pilots see a list and we expect it to be followed, kinda like the Vol 1 or FOM.

i wonder how much sc assigments are predicated on standing WS and GSs? If there are not many WS for instance i wonder if thats when they go crazy on SCs?
