LDG NO BLUE,

I can't argue at all about sked stability--- one of my good friends is on the 320 and I see how his sked changes upwards of 40 or 50 times a month!!!!!!!!!
The 767 is the same or worse.

In that regard I can't blame anyone for wanting to get on the LH fleet. MY only point was that it is not all great on the 330/340 either. I would rather have a long day and 12-15 hours off in between - work less total days per month for greater cxredit. Though I will grant you that might not work well if you get the 320 sked with all 45 minute hops.

I think if the company tackled the issue of changing skeds on a daily basis and dealt with favouritism within crew sked on the 320 fleet the crews at GF would be much happier. In fact I think you would even see some people staying on the 320 because they tend to be home more - and depending on your life that may be a real bonus. As I see it, the issue is not so much the 320 as it is the manner in which the crews on that fleet are treated.
