This should get you started. Look for fees, shipping time, type and weight. Prices are getting lower.

This is not a change in plan. I am speaking only of the airframes that were staying in the fleet plan long term. The schedule for the planned retirements on the on the other airframes has not changed.

Would have agreed before my last trip. ATC asked us to do 310 on the descent, FO put 310 in the cruise alt line and executed. We started climbing to get to the vnav path. Nice job, Sluggo. And there was one last summer that fell in love with cruise altitude changes instead of just putting it into descent mode, so when they finally gave us descend via the RNAV arv into LGA, he executed "des direct" before I could stop him.
If we were all smart enough to quit making stupid mistakes like these, I would agree.

Why are we doing this anyway? What's wrong with signing it in the cockpit? On a related note, is it just me or are we drifting towards checking, verifying and confirming EVERYTHING in the cockpit?!?!?!?!?!? My last 2 F/O's (one a new hire) asked me "how's this look" on a simple speed change in the FMS! And do we need to verify a runway extension?(it's not moving the jet!) Sure seems like we're getting overly "cautious" and slipping to a VERY rigid cockpit. S acronym's anyone

Not quite.
At any point at which you are beginning flight duty, you need to be able to look back and see that in the past 168 hours you have had 30hrs contiguous rest. If you start LCR at 0000 Monday morning, you are a pumpkin if you don't start duty before 2000 Saturday.
So if you're on LCR, you are dead to them at 0800 Saturday, or 1800 if you're on SCR.

I am confused with the first paragraph's last sentence. What does it mean "if you don't start duty before 2000..."? If I start a duty period (FDP or SCR) that runs past 2000 Saturday, then I will not have 30 rest in last 168.
Also, ...on my first day of reserve, I got assigned SC at 1100. Did my duty begin at 0000 (no rest comment on schedule) or is the first 11 hours of that first day considered rest?

)I guess I'm a bit of a dinosaur... retirement can't come soon enough.
BTW, my brief into the ATL on a Cavu day is: "Std vmc brief. Any questions?" (How many bazillion times has an ATL pilot flown into ATL? I really don't think I need any more brief than this to be safe. YMMV.)

I believe (don't know) that if you acknowledge your 1100 SC before your LC starts, your duty would start at 1100. But if you don't, it will start at 0000... When you either check your schedule or get a call from scheduling. But I'm not sure on that specific, nor am I sure anyone else is clear on it.
