Now hold on to your tin foil hat and focus.

The C20 reps ( I wonder who they were) were the first to argue in favor of CDOs by introducing a C20 resolution asking that the contract be modified to bring back "illegals." The C20 reps argued that they were very popular with senior pilots. But for the actions of other representatives we would have had CDOs years ago. :eek:

Now I'm not saying that the C20 resolution asking for CDOs, which was championed by the C20 reps, was the genesis of CDOs in the FAR117 TA, not at all. What I am saying is that there was pilot input in favor of CDOs.

There has also been pilot input against CDOs in the form of emails to reps.

There are also a significant number of pilots who have expressed a desire for CDOs.

With all these conflicting data points, what's wrong with asking a straight forward question in a scientific survey?

And it appears to be 39 for and 61 against.

Done. Question answered.

Next.

Another question. Short call reserve. I know the contract says a reasonable amount of time to get to the airport and it is known that 2 hours is reasonable. Is the 2 hours for check in at the computer and then you have about an hour to push OR is it 2 hours from the time you get the phone call to your arse better be sitting in the seat of the airplane getting ready to push?

lol. Not sure how that applies, but it is as logical a reason as any.

I still wonder what Tennessee did to the football gods to deserve the bad karma that we are getting in the form of Lane Kiffin.

I heard that Phil Fulmer has been seen in Savannah... with Minerva... at midnight... in the garden of good and evil.:eek:

I'll throw this out at you again since your knowledge of statistics appears to be lacking:

Is the DALPA survey in its current form more scientifically valid than the DPA survey?

Now that's just mean. Phil Fulmer is a good man. Of all the people that have stood on the sidelines in the past few years, his blood actually ran orange. The jury is out on bUTch, but Phil actually put on the helmet as a youngster.

Bottom line, keep scheduling in the loop. There is no reason for you to get a speeding ticket or have an accident to try to save 5 minutes. It's just not important enough.
