Overtime

Out of interest am I the only one getting rostered overtime every month?
Are they still working B scalers all the overtime and leaving A scalers alone or has it got to a point where A scalers are getting rosted overtime as well?

I just calculated that as a B scaler I have to do 97.15 credit hours to match A scale (for my rank) with EFP. Additionally 114.85 credit hours per month would double my basic salary.

So how many B scalers out there are exceeding 97 hours per month?

It certainly seems the new monthy hour roster has 88 to 90 hrs in it now insteasd of the normal 83.9!
Then with a reserve call out it must be getting expensive.

99hrs this month with some reserve to come. Scheduling are now rostering some crew for ground duties (crew up for sims) when they are unable to fly a 'normal' flying roster due proximity to 900 block hrs.
Pound of flesh??? I think so
