Notices

### It is against the APC Forum Rules to advocate any labor action which is not authorized by the RLA/NMB. This applies to ANY wildcat actions, including slowdown, work-to-rules, withdrawal of enthusiasm (WOE), sickouts, etc. It is irrelevant whether the union itself has anything to do with the action. Major unions have lost court cases and in one instance suffered severe financial damage in the process. Online posts, including anonymous posts and posts made here on APC, have been used in lawsuits against unions. Many major airlines are in negotiations at this time, and many are contentious. We have been contacted by major union legal teams regarding this issue. The rules here have not changed, but the enforcement will now result in a 30 day ban from APC for violations. Please don't sabotage your own union's efforts on your behalf.

### In order to submit updates to the APC Airline Profiles, please send updates directly to Rickair7777 via Private Message (pmail). I will review and forward them to Internet Brands staff for posting.

Wife was at 83%. Now at 50% below.

So, since tons of pilots are now going to be sitting reserve who didn't ask for/couldn't receive an SRL, will the crew desk continue to build FSBs and needlessly expect pilots to go to the airport petri dish and then not get used?

Can you refuse a FSB in this day and age? Any union talk of altering these for the safety of the pilots?

Yep, I went from 30% above to 20% below overnight and yes you can fully expect the sadists in CS to build even more SC's and FSB's just because they can. #core4

Were I to see an excessive number of SC's and FSB's, I might be inclined to just stay home. But, I bid for an SRL in April, this won't be a decision I'll have to make. May? Who knows.

My seat is down to ONE flight. How many FSB's and SC's do they need?

So now we’re finally concerned about reserve rules and excessive SC/FSB assignments. Got it.

Maybe that’s the good thing that will come from this. More people may care.

As it turns out - reserve is NOT a choice.

Avoiding reserve with a RSL was a choice that many made.

That has not been happening this month, at least on WB fleet. Just too many pilots on reserve. Many of us will not get to 5 SCs for 76hrs.
YMMV
