At the very least, full back pay, reemployment and a clear cut precedent that this type of pathetic big data dump witch hunting will not be allowed to stand.
If the end result is still a handful of dirtbag idiots still sitting SC "from home" a million miles away, then they can come to us we'll see if we can work something out. I'd be all in favor of some kind of location verification system for SC, provided the monthly number of SC's is reduced. Perhaps throw in 4 times a year a normal commuter can use a one flight policy. One of our biggest regionals already has that. We can address their concerns in a way that benefits everyone including them. But establishing BS retroactive criteria where you are guilty if you can't prove your innocence is unacceptable, and the system board will most likely smack that down hard. And if any pilot is rocking out to the Beibs, they deserve full pay protection while they go to a proper rehabilitation program. |

You are seriously joking right? Please tell me you are! Because I am 100% NOT in favor of all reserves having to wear diapers because a few VERY SENIOR reserve pilots might have sh*t their pants! This is NOT an acceptable solution to this problem at all. Why on earth would you think that this is "OK" for everyone because of the poor decisions of select few? Seriously??? Feel free to explain yourself. Persuade me, please.

Ok... who broke PCS this morning?? I think that might be a new record! I was very pleased with the results, though!

How long have they known about IVDs and IT waits until 4 hours before the first PCS run using IVDs to update the template? It's like the Keystone cops.

If the only downside is a fair and reasonable verification of where you are at start of the SC (when you must be promptly available anyway, and relatively immediately available for contact anyway) then there is ZERO downside. Except for the punks who acknowledge thousands of miles away knowing they can't be there. Sucks for them, but I chalk that up as a positive as well.

Way back in the dark ages no one would have even thought about commuting to reserve. Back then every day of on call reserve had two separate periods of short call. Now pilots commute across country to reserve....
Unless you are a new hire, being on reserve is a choice. If a pilot finds commuting to SC onerous then s/he should bid a regular line on whatever equipment s/he can hold. End of story. If you can't do the time, don't do the crime. Denny |
Anybody notice the blurb on iCrew saying QCQ is currently unavailable?
