Satch is a Bammer... English is a second language to him.. Bad English is his first. (Apologies to Bruce Willis in Fifth Element)

Lane Kiffin still sucks.

Together we can make a more compelling case to JAL. Together we can actually better feed Asia and the Atlantic. Together we need the DC-9's more than Compass, etc. ANC, unfortunately, is gone. You can argue that it was only axed post-merger if it makes you feel better, but I think the SLI hearings cast a different light.

Let's just be grateful we're not furloughing, and that we have some critical mass together.

You speak the truth my friend.

Hey if a reserve pilot has vacation or cq. Both of which being 4 days long. Are they only given a guarantee of 60.40? I had cq in Nov and only received a check for 60.40 when viewed in pay statements in icrew. Is there that much of a penalty for taking 4 days stub vacation or 4 days of cq. Also I only show 40 bucks worth of per diem during my cq month. That can't be right. I'm on the airbus and my captain I'm flying with says I was shorted at least a 1000 dollars. I need a delta guy to explain this. So in short with training or vacation are you ever paid below the 70 hour guarantee? Thanks 320b


You are only looking at the credit in icrew. You will also see your CQ days listed on there but they do not count towards credit. With 4 days of CQ or vacation, your reserve guarantee is reduced by 1/30th or 1/31st (depending on # of days in the bid month) for each day of CQ or Vacation (a 30 day bid month equates to approximately 2.33hrs per day for the month). You would then multiply the 26 days available which would equal 60.67 and this would be your new reserve guarantee. Now your 4 days of CQ is worth 3:15 per day or 13 hrs. Add the 13 hrs to your 60.67 and you will be guaranteed at least 73.67 hours for the month.

Hope this helps shed a little light in a confusing process.

Hopefully this will be our year (for once) in the frozen tundra. You can, however, continue to send pictures of Americas Cheerleaders :D

It is just based on my guess that if the government spends billions on restructuring JAL, they wouldn't cut it off at the knees and and leave it with no ability to compete world wide. Just my own opinion, nothing else.
