Oh. So, it's like a cargo fire after takeoff. Anytime you have to do that, you deserve a greenslip.

We had some DC9 guys in DTW get 9 to 10 greenslips a month last summer. Look at the Greenslip report on the DALPA website. Typically the company hands out 1200 GS's a month system wide.

Please tell me that the emperor actually has clothes .
In Feb there were 1939 Green slips, 24 Inverse assignments and 2 Green slips w/ conflict.

1 GSWC for a DTW DC9 FO and 1 for a SLC 737 FO.

Seattle A330 Captains got 7 Green slips.

If you want Green Slips -- Detroit is the place to be.

If you get a cargo fire after takeoff, and you check after landing, you'll find you probably greenslipped yourself. I think the contract says you can expense the laundry on that one.

Just finished recurrent a couple of days ago and did this exact scenario/maneuver. They told me I flew it just as good as NewK (I was quite flattered), but they did not give me greenslip pay for it.

The union publishes it.

Log in to http://dal.alpa.org and look under the "Committees" tab --> "Scheduling" then "Assignments/Green Slips"
