People going from holding lines back to reserve..On the 900 side, firebreaks suck, but they stretched out duty periods. That probably led to more trips to cover all of the flying. Gauging by the pairing numbers, there are 104 less NYC 900 trips in May than April. All of those extra trips probably required more lines in April.
On the 200 side, only the LGA side shrunk. They're introducing the 700 in LGA next month. Maybe some of that flying went there? JFK has about the same number of pairings.

I was looking for either an outline or slides on the 9E website, but nada.
How many days and what does it include.
Thanks in advance...

One maneuvers lesson and your MV. 2 lofts and then your LOE. Usually two trips of OE then. Start to finish it was less than a month. Sims are bid for by seniority in captain leadership. They just pass around a piece of paper with different schedules. Overall upgrade wasn’t hard at all.
