Usually the CP calls and tells you why you're being fired... before they slap the dreaded PEN4 on you.

Haha, they took a trip off that was awarded in PBS and replaced it with a different trip. Not complaining, but it's the first time a trip has been removed from my schedule and swapped with something else. I was getting close to the 100 in 672, but I'm not sure if that triggered it or not.

Your trip was taken by the training department for IOE purposes, so there's an IOE guy in your seat.

PEN just means "Pending." If they don't assign anything and it's less than 72 hours to your report time, you get "DIOE" which means "Displaced for IOE", which is like manna from Heaven. It's only happened to me once here...

92 hrs credit and 11 days off. Ugh. But, I did get 50% P1 trips, one P2 and one P3, so it could've been a lot worse. No PNs or CNs. Then again, I'm working the 24th-26th, but those are all standups, meaning I get to be home during the day.

This 90+ hour min credit, min days off stuff needs to stop. But who am I kidding? As long as OO can keep filling classes, things won't ever change.

Seems there will be a big transition push as well as transfers, and how should this effect SFO?

Useful insight is much appreciated.

And yes, PBS sucks!

Didn't the email say 34 lines for LAX? I am assuming that means 34 CA, FO and 60 or so FA transfers. On the LAX CRJ side, it seems to be picking back up after bottoming out in November and the US/AA shuffle. SFO has stayed pretty consistent with 55-60 or so in each seat for the ERJ and CRJ. It's hard to predict anything but I do see us getting more 175 flying just because of how much we are overstaffed in that plane.

I think they are hoping to be able to fill some flying that others can't staff and they are fine letting the CRJ suffer low levels to make it happen. The fact that you have the same reserve levels in DEN for E175/CRJ FO (6/5) for 120 Target lines (CRJ) vs 11 Target lines (E175) tells me they don't want crew cancels on the E175. But once the DL bennies get sorted out, I feel you will see more senior people out west start to bid over to that plane. Jr. CA on the 175 will be stuck at the bottom for a long time.
