2012 Bcfs/Asrd Contracts?

[Rosco P C]

I was just curious if anyone has any good information on who won... or even who bid on the upcoming BCFS (or what ever they call themselves these days) medium contracts? Rap and Bucket Ship?

 

Are Alpine's contracts also up in Alberta with their Rap program?

 

Thanks folks... Play safe

OK... how about now. Any info folks? These contracts should be awarded now, or at least pretty close.

[WTF_was_that]

Heard The Slavers...... for ASRD.

Based on a 4 hour day GSH will be getting $2133/hr and Mustang will be getting $2012/hr,

a 6 hour day GSH will be getting $1825/hr and Mustang will be getting $1683/hr.

 

Maybe i have this rate schedule figured out wrong and someone can correct me?

 

It gets worse as the hours get higher. If i was the owner i would hope that it was a monsoon for the next 5 years and they didn't fly much cause on a busy fire season they are going to be making much.

 

Hopefully they don't have to hand out many of those $5000 bonuses for engineers...i'm no mathematician but i dont see much money left on the table at the end of the day?

I'm wondering if the daily is a minimum if the A/C doesn't fly much. If it does fly more than the daily min then the hourly continues on??

Maybe I'm wrong.
