It could be done easily in a differences course if there was a FAA approved one. Ditto DC9 to MD-88. Unfortunately there is none. Prior experience with hammer and chisel do help those new to the DC9, as does one of those math for pilot refreshers.

easily done?....Maybe your an exception but I would have to say absolutely not. Apples and oranges...Some switches look the same but that can bite you, they have different ways to be operated and different values. A differences course would be the same content and length as a full course.

Going from the nine to the 88....the only thing that is the same is how to turn on ground power. Otherwise everything is different. All navigation, all com panels, all engine parameters and gauges.....different.

Not to single you out since this is a company issue. It seems like the new reserve system is akin to a senior line holder dropping a drip onto your line and you having to fly it while he doesent and still gets paid.

The SC buckets run 0-2, 3-5, and 6+. SC's are assigned in the following order starting with the first bucket.
YS request for SC in seniority order
Assigned to pilots not requesting in inverse seniority order
Once bucket one is exhausted they jump to the second bucket and start the process over.

SC is controlled by scheduling. Him flying in for SC and not flying while the junior folks have 150+ raw score is controlled by the over-respecting seniority reserve system.

The new system is fine in construction but the buckets are too big as it's been said a hundred times. 60 Raw and I think it would be a lot better for everyone except those who are now on an almost permanent paid vacation. There's something wrong with a system that forces the vast majority of work on a few while paying others the same or more to do nothing. There's a reason communism failed.
