AAs system is better. You can pass a trip to someone junior to you, they have "sick if needed," and you canbid for long call or short call, with short call paying a higher guarantee. AA also staffs their reserve higher than us, whereas we run thin on reserves pretty much all the time. Are you saying sitting in the crashpad is good or bad? Most of the AA guys i know sit reserve at home because they can set it up go pass their trips down to a junior pilot. If nobody junior is available, then they consider heading down to the crashpad.
And are you seriously asking me the question I have highlighted?

Nope. Fail. They are in my crashpad, - constantly - because they cannot sit long call at home. Their reserve coverage is short, just lke ours, for the exact same reasons. That negates all of the above stuff you tout.

(i live in base). FOs were actually complaining about rotting away in the crashpad. Total anomally of course, caused by the new base, and now theyre super short. So i was wondering if meant they were begging to fly. My mia 737 buddies that were senior on reserve hardly flew more than 30 to 40 hours a month compared to our narrowbody reserves pushing 60 to 75 hours. Im guessing thats changed for AA now.
