Haha, you mad, Bro?

Not at all. You clearly screwed up your financial situation so you need it. I’m fine with my 76 or 68 hours. I’ve been through this before and planned for it. All I say is don’t take away other people’s opportunities to do the same thing you are. Many FOs I fly with want their jobs even with reduction of hours. Also. If we furlough our lines go back to 80+ hours and days off that we aren’t willing to give up. So you’re better off keeping everyone around so we keep getting a lot of chances to pick up. Use your brain.

$2500 to fly a commercial jet?

With 100k plus in student loans? Yeah right!!!


Look in the mirror to see the REAL image of a fool.

You claim to know my financial situation? Your pure comedy, bro!!!


I'm getting bored having 18 days off in a row. Remember, flying is sooooooo low coming October. Be smart, grab it, while it's there.

Plus I've got more cash in the bank than you only can dream of.

Vote NO!!! I actually did already 👍👍👍

Pangolin, are you management or Union?

Go ahead and request future LOA, you'll save at least 2 FOs from being furloughed.

Use that story @ a future mainline interview. I'm sure they'll love it as much as you should, and you'll get the Job!!! Think about it.

Disregard, I wasn’t thinking. I think my line was 63ish and I’m at 87 credit.

If you know how to bid, you end up with min credit. That was set @ 45 hours. My line is worth pretty much 45 hours. Max days off.

Any extra flying gets credited above.

Pangolin, how much credit was your line this month?

Anything above 45 hours (or whatever your CRJ min was), you're stealing flying away from our junior captains, preventing them from having a line.
You should know, sitting reserve ain't much fun.

Or worse, they get Furloughed, since you fly more than it's required.

in TX you can also claim ‘reduced income’ due to “COVID-19.” And they waived the job search requirement.

55 was the low end to hold a line. Let’s just say I barely held a line.
