We reduced our CI now on 737 classic and NG to 13, which means a 253 kias descent speed and rather low cruise speeds. Had a short sector today with a planned cruise level of 290, the ECON cruise speed was 236 kias in a -700
, guess i need to take more papers up front to help passing the time (and no, we dont get payed for blocktime, we get payed for standard blocktime which didn't increase, so much fun making a loss each sector).
