We could staple them instead. I think thats the prudent thing to do.

Um, what's all this about a staple all of a sudden? As a Compass-er, I would welcome it, obviously...

Reference the previous page. The stapling has nothing to do with pilots. It was pure boredom. ;)

I'm going in March to the 88, if thats worth anything ACL. Guys junior and senior to me (not by much either way) are going in February.

Yeah, there were 70 guys on the B side of the 767 that VDed out. I just do not seems to recall that many people having projected training.

Well, we are just kind of watching the world go by... and I'm on pace to do 1 day trip on the ER over a 38 day period... so I guess... I could look it up... if I remember my passwords... ;)... but I'm intrigued by my rocking chair buddy Johnson, what are trips like on the 320? Is it very different between MSP/DTW/MEM?

I did not count, but is everyone on the projected training list. As first glance I thought so, but on second glace it does not look like every one that was awarded something is on there. Some one that has more time than me look it up. :)

ACL, since my wife went home tonight and being bored I counted it all up. They are in fact all there. I actually may have miscounted because I had slightly more than 70 on the list. I think it was around 75 or so. Oh well, life will definitely change on the 757 domestic in the next five months.

Yeah, I just did too. Oh well.

I like the 320 trips. You can end up with anything from 1 days up to 5 days. Destinations on both coasts, as well as San Juan, Montego Bay, etc. Often no more then 2 legs a day, although there are some 3 or 4 leg days but in my experience they are rare.

Here is a 5 day from the Jan bid pack

Day 1: DTW-MEM, MEM-DCA 0530 report/1145 release

Day 2: DCA-MSP, MSP-CUN 0540 report/1451 release [26 hrs in Cancun:)]

Day 3: CUN-MSP, MSP-BZN 1534 report/2327 release

Day 4: BZN-MSP, MSP-MCI 1300 report/2038 release

Day 5: MCI-MEM, MEM-MIA, MIA-DTW 0545 report/1642 release

28:35 hrs credit

I enjoy the trips. I believe they are similar from base to base. Hope this helps. :)
