I had it explained to me as "must have used dpma"
On widebody its easy to exceed 300 in three years without going on ltd. You could probably do it with 2 sick calls each spanning two twelve day trips, but in separate years.
Another gotcha appears to be its not a rolling 36 month reset but rather only resets in June.

Your not going to see it fixed prior to the next contract unless the company needs something of fairly high value from us. Perhaps the Virgin deal might supply the opportunity. Absent something like that the company is not going to make a high dollar change pre contract. All the items in the SOT are for the most part no or very low cost. In some cases they save the company money.

I am NOT saying the old fNW system was better, but it would probably be close to cost neutral. I don't think it would work well at DL because the reset window is always in June and is not a rolling period. It would also involve DL agreeing that pilots can use FMLA without modification of the law.
P.S. There are other items higher on my list, but a deal with the company on Virgin smells of scope concessions. Count me out.

The difference is that reserves get a payback day. Regular line holders do not. If we dropped the payback day then the company might go for double pay. Many reserves however would hate that since it would mean the end rolling thunder and result in a reserve being exposed to work more days in a month.
