This could have a large impact on the medical profession. Would also make getting the doctors note a bit easier as well.

I put in a request to move some X days on PCS. What does "1: Capped Reserve Day(s)" mean?
Is that a polite way of saying "denied"?

[QUOTE=XtremeF150;1701421]In regards to the 747 replacement aircraft, we all know RA loves used airplanes. There seem to be a lot of carriers looking to part with used 777 aircraft right now to buy newer technology. I'm wondering if we are going to grab some of these because they would be available much sooner than a new aircraft. Just have to see who is taking delivery of new equipment right now and what they are parking.
Or we might be picking up some used 330's from some island in the pacific...well pilots come in that deal I guess so not really a gain.[/QUOTE
Recently RA said he would not buy a used WB. But he also said that the 74s were not going anywhere soon

Yes. Look at "reserve coverage " under the open time menu. Compare required vs available. The numbers DO change on occasion, and what was denied today may be approved tomorrow.

Also remember that coverages change during pcs runs so everything is a crap shoot. I have seen sure things denied and hail Mary's go through. The monthly reserve coverage is more of a guideline.
After you put your swap in, go and check the reserves required in the open time section of icrew. If your swap is on a "blue (greater than required)" day, it'll go through unless someone senior wanted that day off too and it was on the limit. If it's black (at or below what is needed), throw in for it- people pick up open time and swap all the time. Don't delete it, you may be pleasantly surpised.
Swaps and such are computer based- it should never be on someone's whim.
If you're moving your X-days to a holiday period, then the system compares the shortest day you're moving your X-days to with the shortest day that they're on now, and so on.
Weren't he and Matt Coons the Comm Committee that Dave Stevens let go prior to the merger? After the merger, he was C20 FO rep and he was Kingsley Roberts' Comm Committee Chairman until being moved up to EA.
