If a 4 day or two filter through the people above you and are enough to complete your schedule, you get the benefit of having a couple weeks off without worrying about scheduling tracking you down or moving your days off.

The only way that it does affect the senior folks is that when you don't get a reserve line you can pick up and swap trips, etc. That could be adjusted though. Keep the benefit of not being on reserve when on vacation, but not be able to pick up extra open time, etc.

I dunno. I think overall PBS has been a huge improvement for us. I get why the ERJ guys don't like it. They had a sweet deal that eventually will go away. Get your time, and get out. Everyone will be hiring like gangbusters in a year or two.

Our attrition is double that of the crj side and they are expecting a higher ratio of erj pilots to leave when hiring starts at UAL.

If you are trying to be an internet tough guy who "knows whats going on" then you are going to be constantly disappointed. No one knows and the longer you do this the less you care. I was just stating facts to a potential new hire instead of "my buddy in management said..." ... management is a bunch of dopes who will say different things depending on who they are talking to. A little humility will go a long way.

I'll tell you what boy, mark this page and we shall see. If you look at past posts I would say I am correct 96%, at least, of the time.

As for humility, I think you and your boys should look in the mirror. Also, I would recommend getting the blinders off and look at the road. When things actually take place it means that they where in the works for a long time.

Good luck over the next several months. You're gonna need it!
