Rap max is 14. Once you get called you're no longer on rap.

The limitation of 16 is a different section. 16 hours from rap. Hard limit u less unforeseen things occur

So since this forum is uncontrolled, what DID actually happen to MP? Or what was speculated to have happened.

I think we all assume he was terminated for not toeing the company line.

If the company line is treating fellow crew members with respect and dignity, you are spot on.

I don't have any info but I think you are right, if he went down trying to make this place better we would have heard parting shots, instead sapa says he doesn't want it public. ...which means.... I can respect that.

Unfortunately, you're probably correct.

IMO MP's departure was probably not related to his SAPA work or pilot advocacy (which I for one appreciated).

I flew with mp a few times an he was always a standup guy, but if they want to start firing people for the way they treat other crew members all they have to do is check the bid avoid list.

When every FO in the base bids to avoid a certain captain it is time for them to go, and I know of two captains that are still on the list.

Hello!

I have two questions and I thank you in advance for the input.

1. What is the junior west coast base for FO? I will be commuting from ANC and want to keep it to SEA, SFO, LAX, DEN, PDX, MSP, etc. Airports with direct flights!

2. What is the current upgrade time? Is it still looking like 4-5 years?

Again, thank you for your time.
