Hey FTR just to pass it along, I would have done some EF today as I was just sitting around doing nothing. I had yesterday, today and tomorrow off and would have liked to pick something up but they hide the extra time.

What is the best way to pick some EF up? Just call or what?

CRJ FOs are staffed pretty well from what I hear. 700/900 FOs are a premium. Just look at yesterday's daily staffing rundown:
CREW AVAILABILITY:
CA: AVG CR7: AVG
FO: AVG CR7: CRITICAL
FA: AVG
and today:
CREW AVAILABILITY:
CA: POOR CR7: POOR
FO: FAIR CR7: POOR
FA: AVERAGE

Hi everyone. If you live in the CVG area is it hard to do new hire Reserves JFK based?

The thought of a JFK crashpad is uggghhhh... The dollar seems to go much farther living in Cincinnati.

Anybody know how days off get messed up? I switched 2 days in the SAW and now I have 12 days off. I got the day off I wanted without losing the day I wanted to switch with. I'm not complaining I'm just wondering how I beat the system.

Yeah, let's take a few of those Mesa/USAirways Express CRJ-900's from them!

I think new hires can get CVG right out of training now. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Ha...not yet. I may be back a couple days earlier than planned. Doc appointment tomorrow and I think he may sign me off for return to work. I feel fine and have felt fine (no soreness is the face) for the last 3 or 4 days, so I don't see why he wouldn't.

Hahaha! Not unless MAG stops paying their monthly lease payments to Wells Fargo!

If there is any new flying for another carrier, the mainline partner is gonna have to cough up some aircraft or Comair's going to have to funnel some of that cash flow to DL to lease or purchase some aircraft.

I dono, i really don't see how delta would allow this. I mean, granted it's cash in their pocket...but still.

I'm hoping as much as ya'll.
