There is a reason we parked a ton of the things to begin with. We have plenty of pilots.

Perhaps....and there could be another 9/11, or a meteor could hit the earth. Betting on some catastrophe will give you no good choices.

There is still no better choice on his list than PDT.

I didn't disagree. I simply pointed out the weak part in their model. it relies on a plane everybody else is trying to get rid of. That can be a red flag, and it should be. There's good reasons everybody is ditching them.

Let the misinformation flow.

They are NOT coming at this time. They are on the union questionnaire. If pilots decide this is what they want, or, the pilots decide (if it should come to that) that 5 day trips are what they are willing to do to get "X", THEN 5 day trips may become a reality.

But keep spreading rumors, the flames are fun to play with.

Company proposed them. Union wanted pilot input on idea, hence questionnaire. My best guess is that it will be a nogo item.

Hers is my pilot input, hell NO to 5 day trips. 5 day trips are no more efficient than the current 3 to 4 day trips we have now. We would have 5 day trips worth 15 hours pay here at useless AAG holding.

Unless it's 5 on 25 off. I'm all game for that.

That should be the tagline for the Airline Pilot Central forums...

And generation after generation of wide eyed, up and coming pilots will be led astray in a never ending cycle. Companies such as Republic and Mesa practically depend on it.
