are all the pre-merger north FA's using icrew now? It seems like starting the lat couple of weeks, icrew can be extremely slow
I know you guys are busy re-hashing the ATL L&G lovefest, but does anyone have a answer to my question????

IQ Training Credit & Pay Question? I just got my student schedule and it shows my training going on from the 1st to 26th of July, so it leaves 5 days at the end of the month. Am I effectively finished for the month or could the give me OE right off the bat? Also, if I bid, I know I get a shadow schedule and that is what my pay is, but what if I don't bid? Is there a 3:15 per day like CQ? Thanks
Anybody know which, if any, of the ATL commuter hotels has a laundry room we can use? Didn't expect two back-to-back trips with 15 hours in between.

OE scheduling is a world unto itself. I finished ER school on a Tuesday night, commuted home Wednesday morning and commuted back to ATL Thursday morning to start OE. Regarding pay: No. You will get a schedule (reserve or line, whatever you can hold) and get paid accordingly. Failure to bid puts you at the mercy of the computer.

Good responses, I think the guy's heart is in the right place & I see where he's coming from, but his wording was awkward and provoked a pretty harsh response from posters you'd expect to be scope allies.
Perhaps my experience is atypical, but I've found the majority of regional guys to be scope hawks, and potential allies for major airline pilots in the fight to rein in scope. For those of us interested in a future beyond the regionals, our interests align with mainline pilots. Unfortunately, the interests of a growing contingent of regional lifers do not align with mainline pilots, and they tend to be heavily active in our unions & overrepresented on our MECs (see: Lawson, RJDC).
