Reserve times will continue to slowly increase as we grow the seniority list without growing the fleet.

Fleet growth will drop the reserve times again, whenever or however it happens. They aren’t just stockpiling pilots for fun.

Lazy Sunday....I looked up some of our classmates from 5/15, the only folks I saw with lines are IND, CMH and most of LGA. There are still a couple from that class in LGA that are on reserve.


Same with a couple 3/20/18 classmates @ LGA...not sure if they figured out how to Flica haha

I’m CMH based. I’ve done one trip off of IOE so far and I got reserve for December. I’m about 10 spots away from a line. However, with the staffing the way it is I was able to drop my entire reserve schedule for December and pick up trip trades and open time. I went from reserve to having a 100 hour credit “line”. So while the current staffing situating is raising reserve times a little.. you can also use it to your advantage if you know how to work Flica.

Who taught you how to use flica? I’m an August hire currently in the delay for training until January. Will we get crew Scheduling Training on how to use fluca? Or is it more of a learn as you go type thing?

Learn as you go. There are some training modules, but they aren't the best. Your best bet is to ask a senior FO or newly upgraded captain. The guys that have been here a long time don't really mess with it much.

I learned by playing around with it honestly. It’s not too hard once you use it a few times

I thought the August classes returned this month. They were telling us (10/30 class) that we'd return in January (but not given a firm date yet), which is right along with the advertised 2.5 months.

Have the August classes not gone back for Indoc yet?

I was in the 8/21 class and just finished my checkride two days ago.

First off, congratulations! That's exciting.

Secondly, that is what I thought...there were people when I went for onboarding who were in August classes who were back for Systems, I believe.

What does the IOE footprint look like? Is there a delay between now and then?
