I'm top bid and actually got a decent roster for a change. However, I look forward to December with interest when I will be first to trial the new system as a bottom bidder!

I'm trying to work out who will stay working in the office. If 2 weeks office days (without any associated credit) will pay less than a Manchester in overtime. They have been trying to get pilots out of some of the key Flt Ops jobs, now they may succeed. I shudder to think about the quality of new hires we will get with zippo pilot involvement in the recruitment process.

Can't wait to see what happens when they start paying augmented crews in accordance with the flight time they are allowed to log. We already have several flights that go into discretion the moment the parking brake is released. Is it legal to sched a flight as 9hrs block when it will actually take about 9.30 to avoid taking an extra crew member.

The thin end of the wedge is getting fatter by the second, better go to Choits and get some more vaseline. Ut oh!
