Thanks for the info. I just read all the PCS documents. I want to swap trips, not drop any without a replacement. Will PCS drop my trip and not pick one up by accident when using the swap function if reserve coverage is adequate and no trips are available?

Thanks, orvil. Glad I could help!
Hey, I am a little surprised about the "triple beta etf's" as Snider positions, but I'm glad it's working out for you. I'd like to know more about what you're doing. I've always stuck to Snider's rules because I trust them. But hey, you invented the airplane, so I wouldn't put it past you to invent an improved way to pick Snider Method positions!

Try using TNA, triple beta bullish Russell Index and ERX, triple beta bullish oil and oil services. Because they are triple beta with higher volatilities, the farther out strikes will have good activity. Be sure to use limit orders. I only do the bullish and never do the bearish. The spreads can be wide.
I've been making a killing with these two. I may do SSO next month, double beta S&P 500.
As you know, Kim uses ETF's in smaller accounts. This eliminates bankruptcy risk. Use the standard allocation and trading rules. By using the double and triple beta etf's in conjunction with standard Snider trading rules, you get the best of both worlds.

Maybe, I cannot imagine sitting reserve indefinitely covering three bases while commuting. To me that sounds like too much work, esp with those 0500 reports in LGA.

I think in Georgia there as many lakes to operate off as beaches you want to visit in Georgia... hardly measurable. << just being a punk, I really don't know I just laugh at what we have for beaches.

I'm intrigued, and I don't doubt the story, just intrigued by it. But years and years ago (maybe in the mid 80s) was there a guy hired by Delta who decided to go elsewhere and told his (squadron?) buddy just to go in his place. So the guy shows up out of nowhere for indoc and was never interviewed. But they needed pilots and let him continue and then sent him off for a quick interview and hired him.

Ask 80, he should be coming up for training soon on the 320.
CD based training is just fine and simple.
CBT: "How many wings does the Airbus A320 have? A) 1, B) 2, C) 3, D) 4?
Pilot: 2. Wait 1. Wait are we counting the stab? Or the rudder, as a vertical wing? Crap!!!!

There sure are better places to be... But the crews up there are awesome and most of the trips are great. That to me makes it worth it. If you have kids or a household with "normal" hours, forget about it !
