CQ CD, is one minute of pay for every three mins of run time. The run time is on the CQ section of DAL net.

Recurrent/CD sim training is paid at 3.15 per day. Yes a min day is 5.15 and ins get paid 5, but you only get paid 3:15 per day Enjoy.

The benefit now is that those training days do not take away from your avail days on reserve and as a result do not reduce the amount of off days by one in a recurrent month.

FYI: February 2012 has 29 days, so adding 31 Jan & 01 Mar makes 31 days for the Feb bid month.

I'm sure you meant to say Air Farce Common.

Ps. for the humor challenged the above is a joke.

This is actually one of the better things the NC has done outside of Section 6. Used to be treated as X days. So the month you had CQ, you effectively went on your off days!

Hey bros,

anybody got any good gouge on hotel deals in Las Vegas? I've been looking over the DeltaPerks stuff and it really doesn't look like there's anything there worthwhile.

Thanks,
Buzz

Apparently the Hooters Hotel and Casino is getting ready to file. As a result their rooms are rock bottom low. My brother got a nice room for 20 a night for a few night in Jan.

I agree it was total garbage that you lost off days for a CQ cycle. It is one of a few wins out side of traditional section 6.

If you don't need to stay on the strip, I stayed at Silverton Casino when I visited my brother (I was there to go hiking). Nothing spectacular, but it was a nice clean hotel room. Got 3 nights and a car for 260 on travelocity. They have an hourly shuttle to the strip or you can drive (it's 5 minutes). It was a nice change of pace.
