Rumor has it that the good news is that it's the C70 sim. The bad news is that it's for contract training for BFR, Inc to fly them. You know, the one's that say

It is funny. But its also not. Its just one more section of our contract that DALPA has decided not to enforce. 1.D.7

I hear you Super.
I just hope the MEC will enforce our scope clause this time.
Reference the sale of Compass and Mesaba.

Contract 2012:


The Good News: Our 747-400's and 777 Captains make $550 per hour.

The Bad News: We only have one 747-400 & one 777 on the property.

A joke? Yes.

But, the point is, what good is a pay raise if you are on the street, or flying 2 or 3 categories lower than you should be? I think everyone understands that scope is where it all begins....

Nu;
Not sure what a C-70 is, but as FtB pointed out there is a CS-100 and a CS-300.

Thanks for your help
I am a bit confused on your timeline. Calender dates work better. If however you flew 5 days and were on long call or rest today and then have short call tomorrow with 2 days availability the company would have lots of options to fly you. Tomorrow would be day 7. They could DH you to a flight on day 8 or give you a rotation with a short leg tomorrow and DH or layover to a full last day. They gain back the 9 hours block you would have had on day one so they have around 11 hours of block to use you on the two days left on call.
