Youse guys is all mainline junkies... Can't make it without a "fix." I hear they have 28 day programs....

I come here for the total unobstructed cohesiveness.

I come here for the unwashed truth.

This is page 69.

What if 12 was switched to 14 and we added an exception that ALPA could exempt some overnights from being required to go downtown if the downtown sucks or is dangerous.

Win for FTB! Already in the PWA:

5.E.10. A pilot scheduled for a layover of more than 12 hours (block-to-block) will receive lodging at a downtown hotel.
Exception one: Such lodging may be provided at a hotel in the vicinity of the airport if the MEC Hotel Committee has approved the use of such hotel in connection with the layover.
(bold mine)

The MEC Hotel Committee Chairman has met with DAL Flt Ops Mgt and changed min layover times for designated cities for this reason. (after making the recommendations to the MEC and getting direction/permission to pursue said changes)

That is very good news, shiznit! :)

I'm less concerned with the pay tables as I am with what we may give up to get them. Scope and work rules being far more important that some out of context Section 3 tables.

You're thinking of the number of days in a summer bid month. :cool:

Agreed. Here's to improving the Section 5 language even more in C2015...
