Dude. They are CREDITING in the 90s. Not BLOCK. I’m Mesa without nearly the soft time skywest has and I haven’t credited less than 90 since November of last year. I am nowhere close to timing out.

What’s important here is knowing the classic bait and switch routine by management hiding out in SGU. This may seem as if it’s a move to reduce the load for current CA’s on property, but we’re flying 60% of what we could be flying contractually. So what will most likely occur is more flying and now they got 2500 CA’s flying 90 hours of block per month instead of 1900.

Dude. See above. The claim is they were AVERAGING over 90 blocks a month. I was simply pointing out that wasn’t possible on any long time basis, not claiming they were doing it. You are rebutting the wrong poster.

Dude. We are BLOCKING in the 90s. Not CREDITING. PBS gives us access to “bid transparency” where we can look over everyone’s assigned schedules for the month.

I feel bad for everyone else being forced into a position they don’t desire. I just don’t feel bad for you.
