While running a NH class for 2 seems odd the same packet shows 16 NH's just in the first half of January. I love the short sightedness in a 30+ year career. This isn't day trading bro.

Preach.

The sky is falling routine when we’re clearly already fat on pilots, have a new, less staffing intensive scheduling system being installed and are awaiting what is likely an imminent order is hilarious.

They don’t hide the big picture in a hangar in Tulsa. There’s just not an abundance of folks who can see it.

Not surprising we have not hired a lot or upgraded many since the contract passed and we are getting pbs, and I don’t see it picking up any time soon.

I guess a lot of guys forget what we were told PBS implementation would do in the short term. This was all covered in union conference calls regarding a halt on upgrades for some months because of PBS

Yeah we went from solid red to solid green after the contract was passed and that had nothing to do with PBS. Work rule utilization affected the group more than PBS ever will regardless of what the union said.

What base was that at? In DTW, years before the contract there were 4 or 5 red days a month on average. After the contract, 4 or 5 red days a month.

The change to the grid came in 2014 after we won the grievance for them changing the buffer after IOT making every day red. Been in LAS, ORD, and DTW as a CA after that win, and the grid is largely green except weekends and holidays. DTW is mostly green all the time across the board. No significant change noted post-contract.

Must be the CA side. For FO’s it was hard to drop anything for all of 2017 and the beginning of 18.

I didn’t have any trouble dropping nearly anything that wasn’t a big holiday etc. picking things up for the last two months, on the other hand, has been difficult.

When did you start? Were you here through 2017.
