Default Stellar Lines at 9E for Novemeber

Is anyone else as stoked as I am about these lines? 90% of the company has minimum days off (11).

Maybe I don't see the big picture, but one would think less total flying would equal more days off? Maybe my math is off...

Probably preparing for the classes to start in Nov which will make them short handed.

MSP on the FO side had like 6 reserves in Aug and now we have 24 when we have lost almost 2500 hours seems a little excessive.

You sure your not looking at Nov 10? Looked to me the average was about 15 days off... only when you got to the bottom at each base did you see 11 and 12... I didnt look at MSP or MEM though.

I predict massive sick calls and a meltdown hopefully it doesn't happen but when 50 captains in dtw get more than 15 days off and the remaining 140 line holders get 11 people will be ****ed

Sounds like the most senior got more days off than the junior...Perhaps you are confused by the seniority system?

Wow. What happened? Were any PBS parameters changed or? I know reduced flyin around thanksgiving always results in a week of crappy pairings, but not enough to ruin an entire month. I don't know jack about PBS, so I'm trying to understand why the drastic change.
