You are more than likely right with the bolded above. But........I suspect the vast majority are similar to me. And I never would have thought about not getting the extra X day etc. I'm very glad the MEC brought this to my attention and I 100% agree with the idea that any category with SIL's should have gotten an extra X day.
I do think the relationship between the MEC and management has cooled considerably. Time will tell if that's good or bad. But I do like an MEC that is willing to stick up for itself when the contract is violated and not sweep it under the rug with a quick LOA, MOU or a grievance settlement that nobody knows about until it's presented as a done deal...

No, we're just not complaining for performing our end of the bargain when things aren't rosy. I'm RES in a category with Aug SILs and I've flow more in the 1st 17 days of this month than the last 2 months combined, and I've still got 6 days of RES left. Certainly some of the extra work was WX related, but there was definitely an increase in open time for the month before any WX ever arrived.

Could you quantify that please. Trying to figure out how that stacks up to a regular line. For all I know you might have flown 1 three day trip this month and your statement could still be true.
Then again, it could be 75 hrs already.
PS....no fudging😉

edit: and just to be clear, I'm not complaining that I have to work my fair share for my pay but pretending that RES weren't affecting by people taking SILs as suggested by herkflyr is flat out wrong.
