Under that system you'd often see at least 3 days off between trips and still have a chance of making CAP. As you say the reality has very rapidly changed and now on many lines you're more likely to see 2 days off.
I'm obviously missing something??
If annual CAP (your contracted work commitment) has not changed, and the Duty Rig (calculation of a trip's 'worth') has not changed. On Long Haul at least, how can you have fewer days off????
Notwithstanding Roster Assign, which generally only affects a few people on any status.
I accept SH has been totally sold down the river by the BACC, and their 'so called' SH reps, many of whom were on Long Haul, and some of whom had never flown a single aisle Airbus!!!!
