RexB,
Your Point is well made ref tripline holders. However, I don’t see the BL issue as “splitting hairs”.
It varies by fleet/status and month, but I reckon a good 20% of the company are on blindlines. If, for example, you have 2 BL holders flying 600 hours a year and, next year, through JSS, you can get them to 900 hours a year, then you’ve effectively generated an additional pilot with no increase in pilot numbers.
This thread is aimed at new joiners who would have been low hours blindline pilots.
Anyway, to go back to your original point, you were struggling to see how JSS could squeeze more out of the workforce. You see the answer now?
