June '10 Bid's Nuts and Bolts

COS has a reduction in flying yet again. Ugh! Even with the addition of Washington Dulles flying we have still been shorted it seems. On the positive note, the average block hours rose. So even though I might not see 90 hours, I will see (predominately) efficient trips. As you'll see, things aren't looking good for COS as a domicile. June-August tend to be our busiest months but COS in June has less flying than in January! I don't get it. The most frustrating thing about it is that there is no rhyme or reason and there is nothing I can do about it.
