First Look Maneuvers are randomly selected so you won't find them. 2 per pilot. Non-jeopardy/train to proficiency. You can bet at least one will be an RTO. Also look at windshear on app/departure, CAT III approaches, and flap malfunctions.

What they do not charge us is the taxes and airport facilities fees from each flight taken. They absorb that. They also absorb the tax hit for it being a benefit that can be hit against your income, just like a company provided car.
50 bucks irks me to, but the fact is that they could really nickel and dime us on more than just the annual fee and the customs taxes. Personally, I want nonrev benefits codified in our PWA so that they cannot change them on a whim; fees, allotments etc.
