Carefull how you bid, I requested Mon-Thurs B C or D. got a tvl day on Sat, A period Sunday and C on Monday. I asked the pbs guys how that could happen. I asked for a monday C and got it - the tvl day and A period were a bonus!!!. Moral, bid avoids not what you want. At least that is my plan in 9 months.

I would rather us have NO incentive to fly more. I would like to have incentives to fly less. Higher pay instead of flying more. The guys that ***** themselves out will do it no matter what the pay is but I definitely don't want incentives across the board to have all flying more. How about reserve of 65 instead of 70. I cringe every time someone says lets raise the reserves even higher like 75. That won't be just pay, that will also be more work for reserves which takes away from whats available for the line holders. More pay not more flying.

Reserves should be 78.

huh? lower it to 65?? um no :eek:

reserves rarely fly to 70 hours hence raising it to 75 to get more credit to those whom are on reserve. If anything it would offer an option for guys that live in base to bid reserve and get 75 hours in hopes of working less instead of getting a line with 78-80 hours and working for it. raising it from 70 wouldnt take anything away from lineholders anymore than 70 hours.
