In order to figure it out, you'll need to duplicate the methodology used by skeds.

You're gonna need a monkey and a dart board.

That is one of the loop holes. They can actually bypass someone they have already assigned SC to. It does not have to be after 1500 base time. I see it all of the time. If there are a bunch of guys with 6+ days avail and a five day pops up, they will assign SC o the pilots with the 6+ to get to the five day guy in the same bucked. It is totally allowed in the PWA.

I feel your pain, johnso. I've been on reserve going on 3 1/2 years now. I still can't find any logical pattern or consistency to some of this stuff.

First you have to force feed the monkey half a bottle of Captain Morgans.

737 THAT CRASHED RECENTLY: CNN Lightening struck the aircrarft and split in in half. Fox News: 737 crashes on landing and breaks into 3 parts weather may have been a factor. Incredible isn't it????

That being said.. I DO believe there is less bias on FOX than there is on katie couric.
Personally I watch Fox News, their girls remind me of the cheerleader pics on here.

This thread "heats up" considerably as soon as college football begins.

My favorite time of year by far.
