I agree with you guys being upset, and how the airline is looking to check a box so cheaply and not fulfill the safety intent of the regulation. But the ATP course is designed for people with little or no experience to pass the training in 2 days. Is no ideal but is not a course that is that difficult. During this testing you don't need to tear the seminole apart and put it back together. There is a difference between a type rating oral and checking and one just for an ATP. I agree with you guys that it sucks but is not something that is impossible.

Lines are out. Seems there is something fishy going on in FLL. Lines 1 and 2 have 18 days off while everyone else gets 12 and 11. I'd say y'all FLL folks got some sussin' out to do.
So someone went around the union to "fix" this?

According to the union email apparently the top couple of guys in Fort Lauderdale went around the union and took matters into their own hands. They apparently back doored a deal with the new CEO to get lines with more days off.

Wonder if we are going to see new lines now for June or if the ones we have are the ones we will get...

Any more ATL guys seeing their block times changed not to match the logbook? Ironically the company spoke of pilots stealing time, but now were getting jipped by the out stations, especially when you over block. I'm sure it's not only isolated to ATL stations.
