Probably because he had to be there and wasn't allowed to use his positive spaced privileges. Say someone who is interviewing with a different airline outside of the Delta family?

HMMMMM.

Complete speculation here but which airline has their HQ near Dallas?

Default Ready reserve....

I looked in the contract to no avail....anyone know whether or not planning/scheduling can use RSV pilot for ready reserve (till midnight) on their last day of RSV? I have been catching them assigning out of seniority, so I am on the lookout big time for more F.U.'s, but I have been told that they cannot use a reserve on their last day for RR.
Anyone??

Might have something to do with this for those that can actually read a METAR.

How do you go from 100% down to 84% and then back up to 87.5% in completion factor? Cancel flights and then run them later?

Lets say you cancel 25 of the first 100 flights. That's a 75% completion. If you don't cancel anymore flights that day, and you have 300 flights, that's a 91% completion for the day.
