LOL.
It doesn't affect WB flying.
"Different leg lengths" cmon man. AA, UA, DAL all have similarly geographically located hubs with a possible outlier being SEA but MIA is similar for AA. You're reaching. Forcing the optimizer to "fight" between 5:15 and <10 FDP would be a win. Period.

If not, you do not know the unintended consequences.

I think some situational awareness is needed. Is this seriously lacking as far as QOL? Yes, yes it is, but…. does anyone really think after watching what a monkey flinging poop show our union has become they can do better? I’m leaning towards vote it in and then work on becoming ALPA. There are some good people in the union, but its structure is flawed. It would benefit with the added oversight and resources ALPA would provide.

I know these facts and I know the 10 hour rig would improve both.
The optimizer is always going to do what's best for the company. Our negotiators should ensure that what's best for the company is also as close to what's best for us.

Forcing more pay into the time I am at work is good. 3+ hour sits are bad.

If your goal was higher value days wouldn't increasing ACD to say 6:00 hours be a far better tool?
I agree it's going to minimize soft credit.
We have a duty rig and TAFB rig. Why not tighten up those a little and see the effects? Putting additional restraints on the system introduces friction, which costs money, and doesn't allow us to recover that into our paychecks.

It may not force higher value days. It just may force more of them.

I don't have a law degree, so can anyone explain (nicely) what this means:
Additions to the Post-Ratification LOA
Additions to the Post-Ratification LOA
- Evaluate for potential modification and interaction to pairing construction:
- Enhanced narrowbody pairing distribution parameters
- Unaugmented long-duty day RIG (10 hour 1:1)

Keep taking things at face value instead of thinking about what they mean.
