do you also want to do all 8 legs in 8 different jets so you can get enough excercise running between gates?

I spoke with a SLC guy who is around 70% up the list. He said he was getting crappy trips and 11 days off. That is about all I know.
I highly doubt we are doing "part-time" pilots. Flight attendants can opt for part-time, but not pilots unless we changed something.

He also said something about SKW having "part time" pilots? ***?

We have part time flight attendents, but not pilots. Probably due to recurrent sim training costs...part-timers would need the same sim time.
Pilots can drop trips down to 62 hours without using vacation, so you can make yourself a pretty light schedule if you can afford.
