I choose not to math when my fuel check skills are sheathed, but’s it’s pretty obvious to the genuine folk that the poster was referring to NK’s extra duty period. They have the same rig coming too, btw.
As soon as I clock in I’ll put something together that you can’t spin.

There is no sense whining about it now. The TA has been voted in and we have a contract. Go fly. Try and enjoy your trips as much as possible.
Let's start looking toward the positive - when do the so-called ratification checks go out (looked very briefly and couldn't find that nor the formula being used to calculate amounts)?

I just wanted to say that I'm glad that, in my four collective years of living in combat zones, I didn't have to depend on your definition of 77% = solidarity.
We could have done much better. That is all.

I understand that everyone has their own reasons for voting what they want. You are correct, it is a done deal.

But, the point remains. You or I aren't working for a company that deals w/ a commander and orders (thank God - think about how bad this contract would be if we did). We deal with unions and voting. And 3/4th of the voters saying one things is compelling enough to me (despite the fact that I'm part of the 1/4th). How much is enough for you? 80%? 90%. All that was needed was 50.1...
WTF - Welcome to Frontier!

Thanks for your service. And I too have been to a combat zone or two as well - not 3 years but probably the same places. And, I agree w/ you that in the service, there was no such thing as solidarity. It was what we were ordered. Many a time I flew a mission that over 77% of the crew didn't agree with...

Lol. Good luck with that. At Alaska we have the same rigs and we regularly do 3 day, 2 leg, East coast red-eyes with 24 hour overnights that credit 11ish hours.
I was hoping you guys had something a little better than 5 hour duty.
