Default Is it me

Or are all these new additional things we have to do seem like overkill? Now they want us to go faster, bug ATC first, which is money out of our pockets as well. Get your new card and talk about all the new customer service demands on we pilot's. We are not supposed to be involved in all this nonsense. One accident or incident will bring it to a stop.

Don't get violated people with all this additional work. New contract, bad scheduling language, and more pay but man they are piling it on. It's getting to be a bit too much.

Btw, tons are on reserve and not flying but somehow you cannot manage to drop R and/or pick up trips. Most of my class is very frustrated. The devil is in the details.

Disappointed

It feels like it’s getting kinda of ridiculous. I don’t know for certain but I feel like Delta pilots don’t deal with a tenth of this BS. I don’t see a deck of cards attached to their lanyards.

As a former 9E pilot.... you allude to safety, but the only complaints you have actually stated in the open are being told to fly fast (at least tha's how I read it, which 9E traditionally did anyway) and having to have customer service?

Care to elaborate?

CVG - 593
RDU - 421

Pretty close considering RDU isn't a mx base.

And if you expect to pick up all G7 DCI flying in RDU my guess is that there would be more flying out of RDU than CVG since they're based there.

This is all academic, we're clearly all just bored and need stuff to ruminate about

Sounds like he is referring to the latest memo about landing within a specified window. It seems like lately, even when arriving early, the turn on the aircraft is less than 45 min, and there is not a ramper in sight.

I understand the intent behind the landing window, but it isn’t easily applied to real line flying. Must’ve been cooked up by some paper pusher at a desk. Not to mention, our D:0 and A:14 metrics are relatively strong. Plus, how’s it gonna actually work? Changing TAS enroute, sure, but what happens when center or approach slows you 200 miles from the airport for metering? What happens if you land on 10 instead of 9R in Atlanta, therefore adding taxi time? What happens when you hold short of a parallel runway for a while after landing?

Center/app: “Endeavor 3xxx, slow to 210 spacing.”

Endeavor 3xxx: “But...the landing window!”

“What?”

I just don’t see this working.

Just do what they want on line checks and in the SIM and do what you want the other 99% of the time.
