Same as the deal you get when you register antique cars.
The Champagne Edition will come with crushed velvet seats, red line tires, vynil top and optional NDB.

That's the only way I have done it.

They close on the 1st and are awarded by 1800 of the 4th. All bidding dates are in the bid packages, page 3. (And the PWA.)

I don't know what they said or didn't say. Probably neither do you. But that's not the point here. Not being able to retroactively prove your innocence doesn't prove your guilt. Ever.

We simply have to defend against the methodology of that nonsense. That's not even a defense of the idiots who cheat the SC system. Its a defense of all of us and of the process in general. Whats next, a sick call assault where they data dump years of "big data" in your lap and say "now prove you really were sick?"

Even if every single guy accused in this little creative sting operation is 100% guilty, this methodology of going after them cannot be allowed to stand.

I admire your passion in defense of fellow Pilots and agree 100% that they get the presumption of innocence and also paid for and deserve a robust defense. The problem here is that the facts are not really in dispute, even DALPA say this, and I have heard that at least one of them admitted being out of position.

Now that the union has released a statement on this your CPO will probably be willing to talk about it. In any case I am done discussing this since it is still ongoing. Not really worth arguing about while its still being adjudicated - eventually we will get the straight scoop.

I don't know what was said, but I was NWA mgt in a previous job, and I can tell you they went by the book, and with accordance to the law. The company can hire, and probably did hire a private investigator to follow the pilots.

I have a reserve questions for the gurus....

I start a 2-day block of reserve tomorrow. I was not assigned a trip by 3pm today, nor was I assigned short call. I always have been given one or the other. Am I basically off tomorrow, and they have to assign me something by 3pm tomorrow for the next day? Can they put something on my line at 1201am tonight with a 1001am report, etc? Thanks.
