I’m a recent 320FO to 190 RSV CA. Let me just tell you the pay doesn’t even start to compare.
I have only had 1 single month since I upgraded where I didn’t receive EPS or EMA pay of some sort.

Mid week eps is going away. Last day of a block of days is still EPS.
I would say about half and half on that so yes there will be some loss.

They can’t do that.
Extension past your last assigned leg as to be back to base via operating a leg or LIMO/DH. Same as it is now.
The difference is You will just no longer get EPS as a RSV if it is in the middle of a rsv block.

Middle level 320FO. 80-85 hours a month.
190 rsv now. 1 month in 7 where I haven’t made more than just base 75 and I’m not even trying.
