How many hours per month do you guys credit on average?

 

[GINCHBLASTER]

As many as you want. If you want to fly the min, set min sked on pbs, and dont pick up overtime. Min sked might be 84 hours (sucks its that high). It used to be anywhere from 78-82. Or if you want to make as much money as you can and don't care about days off, you could pick up open time and credit 100+ hours.

According to the LOA, giving up a day off is voluntary in exchange for 6 hours over guarantee. If you don't want to go below 12 days off a month, you don't have to.

Hey, Yudzo-

You are apparently the only one who has actually seen the LOA since it hasn't been written yet, much less mailed.

Facts: The company has offered unilaterally for the month of May to allow voluntary reduction of min days off at 6 hours above guarantee.

A LOA, which is not yet written, will go out for a ratification vote. It will contain a provision for reduction of min days off, again for 6 hours pay above guarantee, but it is not yet known whether that will be voluntary or compulsory.

If you got the misinformation you posted from the "republicpilots" board, you need to read the information from the EXCO more carefully. If you heard it from someone who heard it from someone, you need to follow Palonius' advice to his son: Hamlet I, iii, 55-81

the 170 is not a regional plane you are right...it's going to keep you at the regionals forever though. Glad you enjoy flying it sooo much.

 

[ERJFO]

uhhhhh, hello! the 170 is not an RJ because it is a mainline plane....

duh:beer:

Maybe he was refering to the compensation/caliber of the pilots.

Hello, that whole E-Jet family is designated as RJ's. They are the ERJ 170/75/90/95. They are all designated regional jets.

That may be true but I think that everyone's point is that the plane should be flown by mainline pilots because of their capability and utilization by the regionals. Regional airlines are not flying exclusively regional routes anymore.
