Line check pilot activity is assigned to flight.
If only on 1 flight, Capt is prob getting a LC
If “L” on most/all flights on trip, somebody is getting an OE (and the senior FO prob stays home and counts his money)

320 to 330 is 9 training days. I'm not sure on the 350 training. One more reason we should buy 321 vs 737. It reduces long term training costs for the airline.

Yeah, that would've been a great trip to pick up out of open time for a commuter but it was specifically coded to only go to an ATL RES. I have no idea if the guy who got the trip is a commuter and thus got a good deal, but I know as an in-base guy on NB reserve I'd have been pretty disappointed if I received a 6 day trip. Especially knowing the reason I got the trip is the company can't figure out how to properly staff the airline, and I'm just a cost saving technique.

Regardless, even if PBS partially ignores the set condition and gives you one block of 4-days (if it’s an extra X day month) or two blocks of 4-days (in a normal X day month), you’ve still mitigated any of the long trips.

To be fair, CQ helps facilitate it just like vacation. An extra X day due to staffing helps too.

I'd really like to see us eliminate covering trips with out of base reserves. If we do use OOB RES, then let's at least get them premium pay for the convenience to the company.
