[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 2732668, member: 11234"] Take what I'm going to say with a grain of salt, because I don't know the specifics of your operation. 1) IF the BP is 90 and the PKG plan is 114, someone's friend*ed up. Either the IE didn't look at it, or someone thinks it's a stretch goal and that someone is delusional. 2) The air trailer is GONNA be late. Louisville gets >110 1DA flights per night. The odds of an aircraft having a significant delay (90 min or more) due to weather, lightning, mech, etc. is 1 in 63. This means they choose, most nights, whether to hold the entire outbound fleet to capture ALL of a late inbound plane, or let the fleet go half way through. If you're in the NE, plan on 20-25 min. 3) Who said a center has to increase SPC by eliminating AM air routes? That's just the easiest no-think way to do it. You might NEED the AM route, and STILL need to reduce FT driver dispatch. 4) No one says anyone doesn't work hard. I walked out of ops plenty of days knowing I didn't fix EVERYTHING I knew was wrong that day, but as some other old timer told me, you can't save the world by yourself, just do the best you can. But having said that, I've had to stop myself from doing stuff I wanted to do (that had a justifiable purpose) and force myself to do OTHER stuff I didn't feel like doing, that might have gotten me a better return on my effort.
