It seems to me, by some of the comments here, y’all think reserves are just wide open to drop days. Several comments about reserves dropping days and picking up flying. That is completely untrue. I get on FLICA as it opens every month to try and drop reserve days. Generally I am able to drop 1 or maybe 2 days a month. I pick up from the TB and work anywhere from 3-6 of my days off just to get some flying and make a little money. Trust me, reserves aren’t dropping days like you think they are. They are just working on days off because we have to if we want to get “ahead” a little bit. And if you all think it is so easy to drop and then pick up whatever you want, I invite you to bid down to reserve and have at it yourselves. I’ll gladly take your line.

I’ve tried every day since the bid came out to try dropping two different stretches this month. I know I’m wasting my time but I enjoy thinking I’m wasting someone else’s too.
Sorry to you guys trying to trade dtw 200ca Tripp’s....I’m trying

I think every base is a little different. One thing I do. I put in to drop the whole stretch (4 day etc) then submit it a second time but select that option that makes each day a separate request. So if they can't give you the whole thing then try it day by day with that option. It should process in that order too.

Yes I'm being facetious... I know how it actually is developed.... But a fella can strut around in his tin foil hat every once in a while can't he?

Trouble is I've convinced myself that open time is generated solely on the criteria that it overlap, in one end or the other, every single one of my reserve stints.
