In the meantime we heard on here the 717 meant 500 pilots, 750 pilots, 800 pilots, 900, 1000, 1200, 1000, 1200, etc.

To be honest, I don't doubt that Flight Ops wanted to hire just to save face with the pilot group next time they make a promise in a memo. But that's the thing, get it writing or it doesn't mean anything.

I have a feeling as time passes we're going to see Pinnacle Pilots left holding the bag, just like anyone who was hoping the 717 meant hiring. And just maybe 2012-2013 will be the last time we accept things without having them in writing and not a vague promise in a memo, and in hard numbers, not in questionable ratios.

Hey I have a question, Just finished a rotation and noticed that I continually lost credit. At check in trip was worth 17.02 credit for both reg and reserve, and at finish trip credit is down to 16.37, how is this possible don't we always get paid original credit? Thanks for the help.

I've seen this before too for various reasons. Check your Time Card. If the rotation still shows 'OPEN' then they may still be making adjustments for one reason or another. If it's CLOSED then they've done all they're going to do and you should call and find out what's up.

I've never seen it not get corrected by the time it says CLOSED, but it's definitely worth keeping an eye on. 25 minutes is 25 minutes.

Yep, call scheduling if its not right at the end. They can correct it. I've had to do that a few times and they always make it right.

Did you ever get your X day trades figured out?

I plan on calling the APLA scheduling guys tomorrow, but it is bugging me right now. I was at 81 raw when I started the trip now at 80 raw back to bucket one first in line for a trip.
