I think it's obvious that the cat's owner didn't care how it would end up. Any reasonable person knows this won't end good.

You aren't getting it and what you quoted leaves our question unanswered. Where does it say if we are at the 20% threshold or wont we know until the final lines are published? We know that 20% reserve means the extra X day, where does it say whether or not we are at the 20% mark?
The 20% mark is projected, so they know in advance of schedule awards.

Anyone else notice that guys doing recurrent still show up on the reserve avail list? I got assigned a trip one day when I was number 3 on the list to be called and when I asked scheduling why pilots 1 and 2 didn't get the trip they didn't even show them on the system they look at. They asked me who they were and when I gave them names/emp number they stated they were in recurrent training. When I doubled checked after getting off the phone they were 100% correct and it was my trip. I just thought it was off that they showed up as avail when they really weren't. The only way to have seen the whole picture would have been to pull up those pilots schedule. Difficult to do in a large category.

iaflyer is correct. He did answer the question. Open the Oct Bid package. Scroll down to around page 20. There is a grid labeled 'Parameters for Oct 2012' which lists EVERY category states a YES or NO under the Extra X Day column indicating which categories are projected to have 20% or greater reserves.

If someone is in recurrent, they SHOULDN'T be on the list as they AREN'T available. If someone has a 30/7 or 24/7 issue, they shouldn't be on the list as they aren't available. If someone is ending a trip that day and needs rest then they shouldn't be on the list as they aren't available!! ARGH!!!!!
