Oct 07 Senority, and I am still in the bottom of the reserve list in JFK. It looks like 13-14 months. I think by Nov I should have a line.

Yes, the DA will bring you back up to min line value. Expect A1 or A2 usually.

Interesting encounter this morning:
Woke up this morning into my reserve window. Scheduling calls at 830am and tells me I have an 1125 report. Then she says "wait a minute, I don't think you're allowed to do that."

I pulled up the trip and it has me going MIA-JFK-ORD-CVG. Anyone see anything wrong with that?

Well if August/September come and go without being able to hold a line, I think I'll be on reserve a very long time. I don't see any more classes for differences training and haven't heard anything more about upgrades. So we'll just have to see.

What I want to know is why these trips never show up in open time.

Probably because they never get put into open time. Line holders would never want to drop a 7 hour trip like that. At least the smart ones wouldn't.
