They thought they were gonna be able to squeeze more out of us using 117, that's why they delayed hiring. How's that working out?
Any diversion at the end of an 8+ block day leaves you and your pax dead in the water. Timed out recently at JFK taxing out. They planned 18 mins of taxi during the afternoon int push. Took 6 hours to find another crew.
