Think about how that affects pay when trying to hit guarantee. How many days am I going to have to work to get to 75 hours? Doesn't leave much extra to pick up stuff on days off.

Unless you're a line holder. Sure bid down to 65 hours but if that takes up 16-18 days with our crappy pairings, there's not much time left open for SDO or CCP trips. The last line drop in TYS ranged from 75-95 hours and they almost all only had 11 days off.

When I had my schedule down to 65 hours with the SAP, I had like 16 days off. Ive heard of some pilots getting more than 16. Now I'm up to almost 100 and still have 11 days off. The trips didn't look that bad to me.

It's doable with some effort now that SAP working again. I have myself to 95 hours and 12 days off. I think a few of us are the exception. There weren't too many 20+ hour 4 day trips on open time during SAP. Most of the 20+ hour trips were with LCA by the end of SAP. Those are great trips, to get paid for little work, unless you're trying to get to 1000 hours. It's unfortunate we have to do their work and make our schedules efficient, which I think is the point of the comment on the airline profile.

Been working fine for me... Processing times are far from "instantaneous" but I got everything I wanted for February.

Ya, SAP is a little slow, other then that it's fine. Also, I could be wrong but I think those 4 days that are worth less then 18hrs are left over stuff they put together and throw it into First Come First Serve (SAP). I haven't seen any low time 4 days or 3 days built into the lines. I have seen 4 days worth 24-26 hrs.
