| Re: Trip/Duty Rigs? The better regionals have them. ASA and ExpressJet for example. I don't know the details of their rigs, but I understand they're pretty good. But generally, any rig is better than none at all. They go a long way towards forcing the company to keep the schedules more efficient so you aren't sitting around on unpaid airport appreciation breaks all the time.

| Re: Trip/Duty Rigs? Applied to me on my last day of a 3 day. Flew in from gainesville and had a 3:50 sit. Then went to the plane and it had major problems. Two hour delay. Swap planes and a roundtrip to Panama city and back resulted in a day where I blocked 4:42 and was on duty for 12:45. Did I credit 4:42? Heck na. Our duty rig is 2:1 and 1:1 after 12 hrs. That means a credit of 6:45 for me! That was a long day.
