A couple, dont remember the regs off the top of my head but its the lower registered ones.

Its no gimmick, just a really busy time for paint shops plus our business model does not provide for "unscheduled" down time for aircraft for days/weeks at a time when its completely voluntary work so it goes slower.

There are also some A320s going in and the new paint deliveries are just around the corner.

Your info and insight are always appreciated. I was curious about this as well.

Bendo said May for new planes in yellow. He also said no way on the 2nd jumpseat.

Not surprising since he doesn't commute.

A few pages back, Everyone was talking about scheduling hiding pairings and if that was contractually permitted.
C4039 for 14 March is currently hidden. Is that legal?

Apparently we don't fly planes on April 1st according to the FLL bid packet. Somehow I think those pairings will magically appear after the lines are awarded. Anyone that still thinks we should forego pay rates in favor of this transition language is an idiot.

SCOPE, LTD, Pay, retirement. Did I meantion SCOPE!

Yes and about 5 pairings for 3/14 in DFW just magically disappeared late on 3/12.... No reserves were assigned the pairings. I guess they were picked up by non reserves... Doubtful, but who knows.

If I pick up a day trip on a vacation day is it paid over the vacation time, or paid for the trip and vacation time is put back into the bank? I'm hoping to get a little back for some float vacation time.

Neither. You cannot pick up a trip during vacation time.
