What did it look like for the top 10% of 717B folks when they started up the 717? Tons of guys got months off. Was that because they messed up the roll out specifically or is that what pretty much always happens for the first guys to train?

Why would they put a galley in the Canabus?

Just install a drinking fountain and a Keurig!

I am in same boat but on the 88 you have a ton of trips to trade around. On the C10 you may have 0 commuter trips in open time all year. I am holding out another year.

I had 6 months off from September to the following March. Looking back I wouldn't have minded being checked out early because you never knew when that call was going to come. Maybe over your Christmas break which I bid reserve and held off the last 13 days of the month.
