ExAB if you see me at Lofte's you're buying!! i got 11 days off next month; 90 hrs credit. MKE-GRR-MKE-GRB-MKE-MKG-GRR 5:30 credit (about 9:00 duty) and one of those is a 15 min turn! Nothing rocks like a 17-hr 16-leg 4 day! I hope i get an old Comair bird with a jacked-up seat and no ACARS
Welcome to Midwest Connect. At least you can look forward to the occasional BWI or BDF turn.

i may not be understanding correctly but if i am i think this is crazy. so at skywest if your line doesn't get built up to 75 hours then they will put reserve days on your schedule anywhere they want to build you up to 75hrs?
the reason i ask is that here at good ole peknuckle if pbs builds a line and it doesn't make it to 75 hours then that is a tough break for the company and they cant add reserve days on. for example 2 months ago i bid for max days off. i got 19 days off and 70hrs of flying. and that was the end of it.

So I am within the guaranteed (err, targeted) lines in my base - which is why I found my line-award to be strange...So I'll be flying my 60 hours and have my 19 days off but still get the monthly guarantee? How do I make sure they don't tag me with RSV?
Again, never seen anything like it - and have only sat 6 weeks of reserve in my 121 career.

Whats up dude, how the spring treatin ya? No so good it looks. It was getting looking up and up for me here in FAT but not with April. PBS built 66 credit, and I suspect 3 reserve days with be put on here on the 24th.
On the plus side, i'v put in for two seperate vacation days this summer and they have been approved same day as the request. shout back.

Looks like we've lost lines all over the E120 system, except for the big bases perhaps. After the better part of a year being a line holder I'm back on reserve. Terrific.
Anyone have any idea what the jet classes look like? We need to make some room on the Tprop ladder and I know there are lots here that are waiting to make the move over to the jet.
