Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

Ok. Dumb question from a domestic M88 guy. Next month I have two 3 day trips back to back. One is blocked at 14:57 and one is blocked at 16:15 for a total of 31:12 (if my public school math serves me correctly). The second trip ends with a Freeport turn. Does going to the Bahamas one time in 6 days while spending the rest of the week in all domestic locations somehow change 20 in 7 limitations?

Pardon my ignorance on this subject.

Happened to me years go. 30 in 7 is actual not planned as they explained it to me. So they will let you do the first 2 trips in your case (hoping you under fly) then adjust the last one. At least that's what NWA would do. In my case they were back to back 3 day when I was a 9 boy in MEM. I remember walking up to a gate fat dumb and happy and finding a reserve crew already on the jet and a message from crew scheds to call:D

Ha, no no. Not a good thing. I'm about as happy as a wet cat. I've been able to hold a line the entire time but reserve was a better QOL. We've made it so you can sit at 80% and make a choice between a crappy line or crappy reserve.

I wonder what Shoelu, Oscar and that housebroken viking are thinking about that picture. :D

Unless you do it in a 1900 , metro, or jetstream. Then your good for 34 in 7...never quite figured out why they should be able to fly more in those tin cans.

Notice the arm covering on the person doing the bath. If I tried to do that to my cat, you boys would move up a number. She may not get me then, or even tomorrow....but she would kill me in my sleep:eek::D

It does seem like on average lines went very deep in most categories for April. I wonder if that has more to do with it being a long month and many categories getting 15 off on RSV or if we are truly not running as fat as some would have us believe.

Boomer I wouldn't mess with them. I had a funny explanation but then when I read it, it sounded completely sexist and hurtful and I like this forum sooooooo....... Yeah!

That'll be a good way to start vacation 6 hours early
