So if you're going training in the next few months it will likely be around 72 hours of pay.
Make sure to bid "Max Credit" the months you're in training, as PBS will assign you trips, then remove them (Shadow Bidding is what it's called) so someone can actually fly them. You'll get paid what you would of been able to hold. For example, if you are in training the 15-30th of month one, your pay from Qualification Training will be 0.50 * ALV= 36. The rest of the pay for the month will come from either trips you flew in your old category or pro-rated reserve guarantee. It's possible to get less than ALV or 70 hrs (if reserve) because you couldn't hold productive trips. |

Well.. no. If you are in training from the 1st to the 31, yes, but if you training splits two months, no.

Although, if PBS awards me trips and I complete OE in time will I be obligated to fly them? Or will it just be shadow bidding for pay purposes? |

OK, I know everyone else has to do it, but my RAM is more limited than most.
The fact of having to self-learn the A320 while still trying to consolidate on the 73N pretty well spells out "egregious" in my book.......I know, shut up and color........ Happy New Year, BG |
Emirates: Most junior captain hired: Nov 2008 (777)
Don't know why I just posted that - just shocked, I guess. |

I heard they may move ALL the 777 flying to DTW...we lost TLV, it's not coming back, and LOS. A F/A just last night told me they have been told that in March, they are going to put the 747 back on ATL-NRT.
So what's left? DXB and JNB and SYD. They can easily cover that from DTW, with deadheadding, just like they do now. This same F/A told me they were told, "ATL international flying will only be Africa and South America. NYC will do all the Europe and DTW will do all the Asia flying..." Just remember..."Commuting is a Choice!" :rolleyes: |

One of the Comair guys, maybe Boomer, was saying that guys who have left the company can still sign in available for a trip or reserve or something. So they get called for trips even though they haven't been employed there for months.
A bunch of them report having been called by scheduling after furlough or resignation... |

Yeah, I keep hearing that as well. Basically no 777 flying in ATL. Those boys that work for the airport and the city of ATL really irked the wrong CEO. :eek:
I thought you fell off a cliff.:eek: No posts in several days. Did you actually dive into that company or were you just having family time? And to clarify for those who haven't been hearing it, ATL will still have int'l, just no 777s, but more 330s. Less than 5 years is when the full extraction will occur. Will Cal commute?:D It probably wont affect him. |

Ahh, the power if advertizing.
When the Stanford kicker missed the FG, all I could think of was the Buffalo Wild Wings commercial. :D |
