I get collecting a paycheck without flying is great and all, but that's nothing new on the ER in the winter. NYC 7ER is still mostly commuters right? Seems the SC headache would still be a pain as a commuter.

Well, at least you acknowledge that alv+15 applies to all categories.
Personally, I think ALV+15 in a domestic category would be absolutely painful or exhausting. Is there really any doubt that the company DOES intend to use alv+15 in busy months?
In my category, it wouldn't be terribly exhausting because most trips are hard time. The problem with it is that if you combine alv+15 with 7 shortcalls, and you commute (even a long drive commute), you might as well have a mini storage unit rather than a home.

IDK why the NC made it applicable to domestic flying too. Maybe they tried otherwise and were unsuccessful. People should keep in mind that reserves will be able to pick up extra days for extra money. It will happen.

I found out a long time ago that if you step up and actually do something to improve pilots' lives, rather than just writing about it on a webboard, that you will subject yourself to this type of personal attack. I am so used to it by now that it just rolls off me like water on the windshield.

I hope that didn't bamboozle you.

I'm pretty sure Teddy wasn't referring to a bloated, self-serving bureaucracy in that quote. As it is, those of us subjected to DALPA's negligence know defeat quite well.
The blatant cronyism, corruption and inherent conflict of interest at ALPA permanently disabled the "GET MORE" button long ago.
The "GET MORE" button would have been much easier to access if there wasn't such a mob at ALPA clawing to punch the "GET MINE" button.
Hang in there, alfa. Maybe if you keep pushing DALPA's agenda, they'll let you suck on the FPL tit again.

Reduction by marketing in flying
A higher reduction in flying in augmented categories.

Not everyone wants to be restricted in terms of monthly credit to ALV. That's what the survey said, remember?
