CVG will never close. The company needs their LEC votes to keep things going the way they want. :eek:

The company does not tell you when you are going to extend. They just assume you know and you will extend. Whatever the FAR time says on the release, you have to add :30 minutes to that time because our postflight does not count. For example, a 5 leg day only allows you to have a FTD of 12:30 but that 12:30 is actually a 13 hour duty day. A two leg day allows am FTD of 14:00 extendable to 16:00 which is actually a 16:30 hour duty day. The new rules actually allow a longer duty day than the old rules along with more scheduled flight time per day. For those of you that feel mored tired, it's because you are. These rules were a royal screw job.
If you're barely going to go over, no problem, dispatch will just issue a new release with a higher cost index and unrealistic taxi times. We are giving up a lot for out 5:15 ADG.

All they have to do is make it a crime free zone. Some 4 X 6 signs should take care of that. That's pretty much the same as a force field.

That Rebel IPA is surprisingly good. It's not a Pliny mind you, but darn good on a hot summer day.

ODell IPA is where to hang your hat! Actually 5 Barrel Ale is better, although not an IPA...

You can be in the middle of a 35 hr layover on a trip or at home in your bed for two days. However, sitting on long call for 6 days in a row and not being called doesn't count towards the rest. Reserve is a hybrid animal, but in this situation it is not considered rest as it pertains to this rule. So if PBS builds you a reserve line with 10 days in a row and you never get used, on day 7 crew scheduling is going to have to cut you loose for 30 hrs.
