I was simply pointing out that the QOL of 80% of the pilot group has reduced drastically with the new way the lines are built with 5 and 6 day trips.

As for the other comments on being able to switch and trade trips, that's a crap shoot. Besides initial open time, no one is going to pick up your crappy 5/6/7 day trip.
If they are going to keep running trips and lines as is, time to go back to the negotiating table. If I wanted to be away from home 2/3rds of the month /year I would have picked a cargo carrier that compensates at industry standard. If you want to fly us like cargo pilots, pay us like cargo pilots.

I think the day is coming when Sunny needs to decide if they want to be a passenger airline with a cargo operation on the side or go cargo and do ad hoc pax charters like Atlas does.

I’m glad to hear that Sunny is hiring again. I submitted an app about 6 months ago and just updated it last week. Hoping to hear for a good outcome for myself and others who have submitted apps recently. There will always be critics who don’t like the way an airline is being run, but there must have been a reason why you decided to fly there in the first place. I would be absolutely honored to fly for Sunny! If someone is able to give some internal updates on hiring every so often, that would be greatly appreciated; thanks guys!
