You must be at the wrong base. My RAW is still 0 and I haven't flown since 28 DEC and I have this weekend off and I was hired in '10.

Seems a bit of gloating Slow aimed at APA for the purpose of ensuring expectations are managed at DAL. Especially since I'd never ever compare RA's group to anything AMR or UAL or even CAL has had as of late. May have a lot to do with how things turned out for those groups and I woouldn't throw rocks at them and pound my chest.

So when facts get in the way of the discussion, call it gloating, chestpounding and rock throwing. Nice analysis.

Oh, I thought that we had "NWA management" now, so all was lost for labor...

Same here. I haven't flown since 12/23 and I'm really junior, too.

Bump............

Yep, same here. 4 trips in the last 2 months. Lately, if I fly more than twice a month I'm surprised.

Too Tall,

See your point, but often no one bids trips on yellow slips. Having your preferences honored is a big deal IMHO. Any certainty a guy can get on reserve helps, even if you're going to be flying.

It also appears it might be easier to go over if you're flying. I'd much rather fly 75 hours than 69.8.

Also, I think getting raw scope for SC helps position us for making SC credit into pay in C2012.
