How is it that pilots with the lower RAW are left alone, while the higher RAW guys get SC?

You get it when you retire, they bring you in a room and show it to you. I've heard its impressive.

Its hidden in the very large section on the south end of terminal A in ATL on the concourse level.
If you look there are no doors, no stairwells, no windows or anything on the outside of that part of the building and no entrances from the interior by gates A1 and A2.
No one has ever been in there to see "it", so no one really knows what "it" is...
Apparently "it" is a pretty big picture though.

Ok, I'm trying to understand fleet staffing.
A few months ago, we were going to bulk up our narrowbody staffing and make lots of money in the domestic market.
Now, we're not going bulk up our narrowbody staffing. Instead, we're going to focus on widebody and make lots of money internationally.
Why aren't we bulking up narrowbody and widebody and making lots of money domestically *and* internationally?

Remember each scheduler assigns it differently. The way it is done today is not indicative of the way it will be done tomorrow, it can and will change. Your results will vary.

Hard to say as I haven't played reserve under the new rules, but I imagine their concept is the long call guy will fly first and likely accumulate more hours. I got called out SC once on the A320 in a year, long call, 18+ hours was the norm. Again, I have no idea how this has all changed but imagine I will know soon enough.
