Who would've ever thought MSP 900 FO would be more junior than NYC 900 FO? What is going on in May?!

I would be willing to be paid from takeoff to touchdown in exchange for not receiving the 5th automated OOOOI ACARS message.

Dtw too. not enough lines in nyc. Too reliant on reserve Fos to sit around and never fly. Crash pads must be full.

Yeah.. Why don't they just add more lines? Lots of lines with 11-12 days off and I'm sure many of them would't mind a few more days off

Yea, they should. They’ve been credit pushing the junior lineholders. Don’t think all 25 of the most junior lineholders wanted max line range...I have no idea what crew planning is trying to accomplish in having over 50% reserve coverage in NYC. It’s creating a real qol issue for nyc reserve pilots. Yes, pilots sat reserve for much longer times in the past, but they flew, they didn’t just sit at the crash pad for over a month of not flying. They need to balance things out a bit, open more positions in other bases, create more lines, etc. reserve fos have been lucky we’ve had an unprecedented number of irops this winter and spring, otherwise things would be even worse.

Completely agree. I, and others went weeks-months without flying awhile back. I was expecting the junior line holders to get 18+ days off like they were getting before.. Not this 11-12 day off thing. Such an inconsistency of line to reserve ratio. Many people going back and forth between line/reserve, and many being stuck or even going down on the reserve list.

What’s funny is the way they’re doing it is actually costing more than if they spread the wealth.

The last 2 new hire classes have all been given NYC, as well.

So 5th OOOI time... if that's what's going to populate crew trac I guess I WILL be logging flight time by that definition going forward... my electronic logbook imports crewtrac not rainmaker and I don't see myself going to the effort to add the typical 5 minutes.

Maybe I'll track it for a month and see how much flight time I'm losing but I'm not sure I can actually log it the old way if the new way technically meets the FAA definition...
