Of course the flight goes out with FC full, but that's because of upgrades at the gate. Look at the gate information screens, you'll see empty FC seats, that they then fill 30 minutes prior to departure.

My bad. It was an attempt at some subtle, sarcastic humor. You'd think that after 16 years at Delta, I'd figure out how to do it. :rolleyes:

For rotation construction, does a 30-hour layover have to be at least 30 hours exactly (30:00) for PBS to view it as a 30-hour break in 168 hours...or can it be close like 29:44?

To answer my own question, I called PBS Bid Assist.

Not only does it have to be 30 hours but PBS adds a 1-hour buffer so, to "reset" yourself on a layover, that layover has to be 31 hours or more for PBS to honor that as 30 in 168 for line construction.

Curious, at B6 it ends up being 31:15 from block in - because they add 15 minutes for....whatever. Same at DL?

Anybody know how to find a list of LCAs in a particular domicile? No worries if you're junior to me - I bid what I want to fly and don't worry about the LCA co-bid/displacement thing. I'm just looking for a one time "see and avoid" as OE looms on the horizon, in case the planner actually regards my request. Thanks!

Only thing listed on the category lists are INS pilots, but that doesn't help. Only thing I can suggest is asking the Lead LCA or one that you know and like for a list of names.

So Metlife just denied paying for a crown, even though I have the comprehensive dental they claim it is an uncovered procedure. I tried to find anything specific on deltanet and I'm getting typical DAL IT issues trying to look at anything. Any chance anybody else has a similar experience and can tell me if this is standard insurance company BS of denying all claims and making me get angry, then paying, or if somewhere in the fine print it actually says crowns aren't covered?
