Hey, if anybody wants to non-rev to Tokyo, now is the time. DTW-HND started up a couple of days ago. So far, the loads look pretty dismal.

The number after the 4-digit rotation just means that the other crew members are on a different rotation. Usually means that you are picking up the rotation at a mid-point. You can pull up the rotation in iCrew and then check the pilots assigned under "Preflight" by using the first flight number in the rotation. That way you can see who you are flying with and what their rotation does.

Heyas,
Noticed an "L" before the flight numbers in my next rotation display. Turns out there is OE going on, and I'm probably going to get the boot off my rotation.
What are the chances scheds will call with the new plan before I have to commute (prior to 12 hours out from report)?
Since it's a morning trip, I go up the night before, so I'll have to spend the night no matter what.

While I'm shaking it off, thanks for the info. This really didn't sound like what I read in the WSC, but I will take your word for it.

Does anyone know how RAW score is computed and/or what is the formula?

It's based on a very complex synthesis of dart board, Ouija board, roulette wheel and the throwing of the bones of a hairless kitten. Only a few who have been to the mountaintop high above Virginia Avenue have actually been allowed to see just how these various devices are used, and at precisely which intervals. I'm sure newK is one who has been given access....but I've never met anyone else who lived to tell the secret.

Here's a dot for you dot connectors... While waiting to push from the west side of D terminal in LGA a few days ago, the jet next to me is pushing and asks for engine start clearance from the ramp tower. Ramp guy says, "go ahead and you don't need to ask next time." The pilot calls back and says "ok, but the green page says I have to ask", to which the ramp tower replies, "oh yeah, they added that in there for when we start pushing guys tail to tail from the terminal behind you" (which is the current USAir terminal).
