So hating @PeanuckleCRJ right now.

It's required to be offered to line pilots through the normal trip award process, then the trip is immediately bought from them and put on the LCA/IPs who will be conducting the delivery.

@Derg wasn't thrilled with it being bought from him!

So line pilots, in the end, don't do delivery flights? Only the LCA/IPs?

Do the line pilots get those days off when the trip is bought?

 

[Cptnchia]

Do the line pilots get those days off when the trip is bought?

Yes, then they can pick up another trip and get paid for both, or just take the days off with pay.

 

[Beep]

Nice.
MM or MTO!

At SouthernJets, yup.

MMMTO

Nothing else matters.

 

[BobDDuck]

MMMTO

Mmmm. Seniority. It matters too.

But apparently it can be bought.

 

[Autothrust Blue]

Not that exciting when it's coming from Mobile, AL...

Dude was going to Europe, so...

 

[Nark]

Dude was going to Europe, so...

We're supposed to get a 321 from Bama shortly.
Maybe he's picking up a NEO. As for what the COO says, our next delivery is for a NEO in Spet.

Let me nerd it out and figure it out. Like Southern Jets, usually our management types do delivery flights.

Edited: ship 669 first flight was Saturday. Crossing the pond in the next few weeks.
I shall buy you a coke, or bourbon. Or both...

Line pilots I'm sure will begin doing some of the ones out of Mobile. LCA/IPs only for the transatlantic ones since that is out of theater and requires special training.

 

[JordanD]

FUPM!

Or is it FUPA? I can't remember.

Funny thing was, @Derg has way more experience crossing the pond than probably anyone in the 320 training Dept.

Ouch!

Nope. Fun anecdote but that is not the case.

Probably! Ha!
