The issue is assigning them to a pilot when there is absolutely no 757/767 on the days in question out of that base. Make no mistake, I'll continue to go sit them, but it lacks all common sense. CS shouldn't be given short call lines to staff on jets that aren't flying. That's the point of the PDR. It doesn't matter whether they fix it or not because next month, almost all of us are going to be on reserve. The silo will grow ten to twenty-fold. |

I do plenty of SC's too. My record is 10 in a month.

New temporary FSB policy has been put out. Can stand FSB off-airport and take up to an additional 30 minutes to report. Just have to let CS know.
I find this helpful and reasonable. |

It was on CCS with their target numbers. This time they had the number of available and also the number who have bid them in parentheses.
I'm slowly stepping away from all of this - I put in for the 4 mo ESRL and will happily unplug from everything for a few months. |

you mean your fleet isn’t even turning a single wheel some days and they’re still assigning them?
1) deadheading to another city, and 2) doing ferry flights in the past. While nothing may be on the schedule, you never know what crew sked's going to come up with. Someone's been flying those planes to VCV, ROW, and GYR. |

Happy to serve, but it's just silly. |

Thanks much. Things are changing so rapidly that one has to check multiple sources several times a day just to stay slightly behind the latest news.

I have considered it, but i have vacation. 2 weeks in 1 month is worth more credit than the damn srl, and you cant just kick the vacation can down the road.
It sounds like you're better off going with the monthly SRL and flying the line or a reserve line during your vacation month. I wonder if they'll change that rule. |
At my last carrier we had an option to self-designate "will fly" for reserves to bring themselves to the top of the list for getting an assignment. Maybe we need something like this for the non-commuters who don't mind sitting short call or FSB to let the commuters stay home... not so much a pickup, but a "hey I don't mind doing this" sort of thing...
