I read it - but eh. I mean, it changes the formula some, but in my category, we're very understaffed. Next month, some of the days are 16 req'd, 4 available. Most days are about 14 req'd, 7-8 available. A change in the formula isn't going to fix that, by much I think.

I looked the other day at, out of the 7 ERB categories, 5 of them had no days where they were above required reserves. Two (SEA I think) had about 20% of the days above, while NYC had about half above. We just need more pilots.

How's 'bout the other categories?

I'm not judging. Maybe she put that bikini on in the dark.

Or after a drink.

Or maybe she wears the tag on the outside to get attention?

MSP88B tomorrow 6 required 25 available, on March First 6 required 44 available. It's like that everyday, way over staffed.

Iaflyer, not all categories are converted to this yet. Some will go sooner, some later.

Well I might be able to get mine to sign a few Hooters calendars too if we are comparing ...Actually now that she is in grad school she refuses to claim working there back in the day. Women who knows.

I'm not back yet from mil leave, but have all DBMS, portal, Icrew access. I used to have a flightline account (they let furloughed guys have a free one), but it appears not to work now. I've downloaded the easybid v6 software, and worked through setting up a new flightline account, waiting for authorization.

Meanwhile, what I'm trying to do is load up some bid packages and see what kind of trips I could find. However, I can't seem to find or figure out how to download the Navtech PBS software that lets you do their bidding--is it free? And how/where do I get it?
Thanks

Depends on what category you are returning to and where you seniority is. If it's my category and you are senior, let me direct you to spank me hard central underwear at spankme.com for you bidding. Otherwise pm me and Ill direct you to the PBS desktop software.

Anybody see that Boeing won the tanker contract? Could it have anything to do with Rahm Emanuel's election to mayor?
