Easiest way is to pay $50 to Flightline and have them send you an expense report. It uses the max you can deduct for each meal without having receipts. It's also a flight log etc. I've gotten it since they started and, for $50 its soooooo worth it. They also say if you don't save at least $50 they will give you your money back.

Manually via DBMS, I have no idea. Sorry

I would bid 4 days on 3 days off Monday thru Thursday and not get touched. I guess the company has a computerized system now that assigns SC's to spread the love around. I have not confirmed this since I avoid talking to scheduling unless it is absolutely necessary. By the way I'm junior in category.

Ugh, I think you may be correct. I was assigned a SC on a Tue while good for 3 days. I found it very odd. It was not the norm, and happened several days that week.

On the ATL88B, looks like everyone hit their 3 SCs for the month, a few hit 5 or 6 SCs but that may have been on request. I still don't get 0 raw, 0 hours, 0 SCs.

With the SC bucket system, how does anyone not have any SCs? We've got 5 guys with 0 raw, 0 hours and 2 SCs between all 5.

The new SC buckets are pretty worthless. The notion is good but it's not being spread out.

I thought we received 5 RAW points for a SC?

I second this. You get a nice electronic flight log printed out, in addition to having all your per diem figured out.

Sorry, two guys have 0 hours and a raw of 5 and 6. I don't know why 6.

Is there a GS option where you can say "if the Super Bowl (TM) sucks, I'm open to a GS." :D

Actually, with the weather in ATL going from 40Fs to 70F back to the 40s, how are people not going to be sick by Sunday?

I didn't know they give you your money back if you don't save anything. It ended up not adding anything for me last year and I waited around so long for it that I just decided not to do it this year.

However, when I was on the ER.... having that print out for tax season would've been worth $500.

I gave up on them after last year. It was mid march before they finally sent my report.

Wow. I've always gotten mine by Feb. 15th. But the later you wait to order the later they come.
