Just a guess, but the odds are in your favor.

another GS ?

Does a spill-over GS count as #1 for new month as well as originating month? I see you do have to hit the GS trigger for it to pay in in following month---need to pick up a couple hours in addition to 5 hrs bank.

Yes, they are definately bypassing you.

However, is it legal?

It happens so much I just assumed it is legal. Otherwise they would owe us a LOT of money.

Hmmm.

GS Bypass ?

Am I correct in assuming there are few reasons...if any... to be bypassed for GS (junior pilot awarded). No parameters set, avail each day...?? Do you talk to sked sup first? Thx

I remember not too long ago where we would award 1 or 2 greenslips per month total in my category. Is is safe to assume our rollercoaster of indefinite movement is starting now? I've been hearing about it for years. It seems its starting to come to fruition.

AE closes in less than 48 hours!! That should prove your hypothesis of "movement."

FTB, have that cheerleader picture, holding the "Bid Fools" sign?
