Denny,

Maybe I am not understanding you but don't you mean "below the avoid training line?" If you bid rotations above the line it will try to give you the rotations in the order listed. If it can give you any of these it will never even "see" the avoid training line.

Scoop :confused:

Any recommendations for a good flight school on the south side of ATL? I'm not 100% against Falcon Aviation, but they've got quite a few bad reviews (including aircraft incidents) and if it turns out my son isn't as interested as he claims, it looks pretty hard to get your money back once the program begins. The guy who taught me to fly was just a young adult trying to build hours and I feel like he was an excellent 1st instructor; however, there are also a lot of young pilots out there who have no business teaching but do because that's a means to an end for them. Very difficult to shop for a flight school, so any help would be appreciated.

I've probably been unclear. I WANT to go to training in my early month (July) if I can do it in the second half of the month. That's why I say above the avoid training line.

As a side note, I always seem to go in my early month because I'm so junior in category. If everybody senior to me in their early month bids below the line, I automatically go to training. I've got two 6-day trips totaling 75:30 in the second half of June. 28 days from the start of the first one is about 13 July. Gonna bid reserve and be on call thru 12 July and start off days on the 13th. I don't want to get training 1-12 July. Trying to head that off.

And Sailingfun, yes I bid my golden training days over the 4th awhile ago.

Ok guys I'm having password problems. Seems like it happens every time I need to update my password on icrew.

I get the notice that says "your password is about to expire" please update. So I enter in the new password and then it all goes down hill from there. Deltanet still allows me to login using the old password. But icrew home and icrew won't let me login with either the old one or the new one. What is the deal?!? Do you guys have these same issues every 90 days?!

Sure. I have the same problem with my mortgage, Fidelity, credit cards, utilities, college fund ---- oh wait. I don't.

It's the price we pay. (I laugh so as not to cry.)

Seriously -- make sure your Surface is turned off at home. That's usually when I have log-in problems on my other devices. Of course, Delta IT has never "heard of that."

Don't your change your password on iCrew. Go into deltanet -> my accounts (icon in the upper right) -> Security and Privacy -> change password. I haven't had an issue yet doing it this way.

That's a good thing. I have seen very senior pilots forced to train over a holiday because they failed to cover it with golden days and everyone junior did. Your bid is easy. Bid the rotations for July in the order you want then put in the avoid voluntary training. After that put the rest of the options you don't want in the least damaging order.

Probably not what you're looking for just for a private or intro thing, but check out Middle Georgia State. Fairly robust flying program and it should be as affordable as it gets these days.

I just put my bid in. Nine patterns available and nine pilots to go to training (8 early, 1 must go). So I will be going to training in July.

Everyone, thanks for the help!:)

Reserve Greenslip Question
 

Say you fly a reserve GS that cover two on call days but flies into an X day on day 3 of a trip.

I know that the pay over the guarantee is from the X day - in this case day 3 of a trip.

But what about trip credit. For instance a 2 leg 3 day trip will pay 15:45 with all of the credit normally put on the last day. So for this scenario would the GS pay all of block time from day 3 plus the trip credit?

Thanks Scoop
