Are you intentionally obtuse....or just new to 121 flying? I'm finding it difficult to believe you don't understand this.
We're not talking about credit hours, there are tons of ways to earn credit and most of which are legitimate even if there are pilots on furlough. But if someone picks up flying out of open time (not talking about advertised trips from someone else)....open time, where scheduling is looking to fill a trip, should never be picked up when there are furloughees.

I wasn't here during the strike but obviously games were played like that back then too. Actually my swaps let me block much less that 72 necessitating the need to hire more pilots.
Recently the MEC has worked with the company to shut down these deals so now there is more efficient use of pilots at lower cost. Seems counterintuitive as a line pilot but if it good for business it ultimately makes my job more secure.

not to take away from the debate going on here, but anybody know of a store that has the Navy pants to match the jacket? I bought one pair from the vendor but will need more..............

You too know who I am. At least twice I PMed you in the past with my info over different boards. That just for the record.
You jump the guy that labels the opposition something bad. But you don't mind the opposition labeling the leadership something bad. Never mind it is done every day over the other board (which you are frequenting a lot). Interestingly you never ask them for a proof. Perhaps you missed all those comments that make up about 75% of the web-board. But this is also happening in the cockpit, the crew room, etc. You see I have a problem with that. It is not helping us as a union.
You want proof? What do you want me to do? Start paste/copying stuff or carry a recorder with me? I don't need to prove a thing. The behavior is present and self evident. And that behavior is dishonest. I stand by that.
This is certainly pointless though. Bye bye Skybolt!
If someone else wants to chime in I will respond. For now I am off to my St. Patrick's Day party.

Not that it matters, the rest of the 41277 members of APC can know that I am a past MEC Chairman of Spirit ALPA if they just read a little, but they have no idea who you are.
BTW, who are you over on the spirit pilot board? You obviously frequent the place; do you make the same claims there about the dishonesty you see?
Again, sorry for claiming you were anonymous. You're anonymous to the other 41275, but I do now see who you are. I'll buy you a beer next time we meet.
edit: regarding my participation on the Spirit board. I defend my position, and that of what I and the MEC I worked for accomplished. I've tried to limit myself to that, If in the past I was too partisan, I apologize.

If you want pants with style both Banana Republic and Express have the Navy that matches perfect.
