Some of that is true but it's been mentioned before the work rules will take care of that. The minimum parameters will be contractual and thus give the company limited ability jack with it. One of possibilities mentioned was to have conversion/hybrid lines to cover scenarios where only certain days of the month had an abnormally high number of trips. Another possibility was to allow a certain percentage of open time to be available at the end of the run.
That's all well and good, so I guess we'll see what they come up with. Having to do all of that though seems like a lot of unnecessary work and time spent when they could have just used ours and saved all the hassle. Our info says thought that the Smartpref system cannot work with a limit on its ability to globalize. Oh well, it's settled now, we'll just wait and see what happens.

The guy I'm flying with claims we got 9 airplanes from Endeavor last month. That's news to me. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Some of them didn't even have the flaps 8 mod and the cockpits are a f-------g cess pool. Hard to act professionally when your plane smells like a hockey locker room.
But Inc. gets there money and that's all that matters!

I was seriously starting to consider what will or won't make news around here these days. With every update of the main story on the homepage of xjt.com, I get that "drowning man will clutch at a straw" feeling. At least we're finally getting new checklists! 
So, we've got that going for us, which is good.

They must be blowing some heavy smoke up people's assets to get them to come here....ZERO Movement, ZERO new aircraft, parking airplanes and closing bases. I am genuinely interested how they got people into a new hire class...
