Thanks - makes sense. I guess the best strategy is to list a very broad GS request in I-crew and then rack and stack your priorities via ARCOS.

Scoop

Does anyone know what DMCO (or it might be DMCQ) is with regards to IQ training? It is on my training schedule between 241 & 301. No classroom, sim, or time period is listed, but there is "0000" at the very bottom

Deadhead MCO, your training is in Orlando

Begin rant!

I am sick and tired of getting an ARCOS green slip call and not getting the trip! In the last 3 days I have gotten the call, for one trip available, and not gotten it.

End rant.

Significant improvements to that should be effective 1 January.

welcome to my world. I haven’t gotten a GS since last Feb. Been called at least 30 times.

Make that 31. Another call this morning. I have noticed the batch sizes are smaller but for next day coverage for one trip the batch size should be 1. Is that what we get with the LOA?

DALPA Scheduling says that the batch size is not the same as what is shown in the ARCOS app. And here’s the “best” part: the only way to find out if scheduling is complying with the new batch size requirements is to call scheduling and ask. Have fun with that 3am goat rope....

I agree. When I look and I'm number 15 and numbers 1-3 all put down that they want the trip, something's not working right.

I don’t think the batch sizes are restricted until the January bid period. After the first, I will happily take a call knowing they are either compliant, or they are going to pay me two hours for having disturbed me.
