Not at on reserve on the 7ER at Delta, I think in 2010 I broke guarantee 2 or 3 months. At the two freight carriers I was at previously, I broke guarantee about half the time - so 6 months out of 12.

I guess the WB guys on reserve might not make it. But on the 73 at CAL my reserve alway got to 80+ every month I was there flying, May 08 to Aug 08. Not a very long sample to look at but that's as long as I was there. And yes the other was a regional.
