Yes absolutely! WB FO sucks now especially for those 4900 and more senior. Just think of the car, extra house AND boat you can buy with the extra NB CA dough!!!

Not really "to spread out the work"... just reduce the size of the stack in advance by assigning those trips first. The program is thoretically capable, BTW, of assigning every single trip and having no stacks. So the matter is really how big of a stack to allow, thus the logic of having more reserves to cover even if they are senior reserves.

Reserve Greenslip Payback, partial, and pay question.
Is all of the above based on the original rotation awarded? I was rerouted on a greenslip which made the release time much earlier, and negating a partial day to rollover. Should I receive PB and PR days based on the original rotation or what was flown?
If I fly another Green slip that goes over a Partial day, do I get full GS pay and a full PB day for flying on that PR?
First time rolling thunder, I don't have a clue...

Don't know about the second part of your question.
