Probably just trying to optimize the A periods on Dec 26 and the D periods on 12/31.

Yesterday during the DTW FOP visit, he said “late today or tomorrow”. It should be out at some point today.

Dont forget about E periods…or are those just used for CQ and/or West Coast pilots? I had 2 E periods 2 CQ’s ago and they suck!

Ouch….are you SLC, SEA, or LAX based? That blows either way though.

A DTW based buddy just got almost all E periods for his 320 initial (not a new hire).

Unreal. Would’ve traded you my entire block of A periods for them (SEA based). I’d argue getting up at 1230 am body clock time is even worse than staying up past 1. The west coast A period carve out for IQ needs to go.

At a minimum they should try and take geography and sleep science into account when scheduling sims but methinks it’s just mindlessly filling slots….

West coast guys getting A periods, east coast guys getting E periods: Cats and dogs living together!
