Gold Aviation · Line Setup Mockup Q4 · Aug 1 to Oct 31
Mockup only. Nothing saves. Preloaded with the four lines from the current Q4 spreadsheet so the generated blocks can be checked against it.
Add or edit a line
The start date as it appears on the historical roster. For a base-based line this is usually the real on-duty start. For a home-based line it may be the day the crew leaves home, ahead of the aircraft.
Travel time between the nominal start and when flying actually begins. 0 for a line based at the aircraft. Home-based lines commonly need 1 or 2.
How far behind P2 and S2 run. Defaults to half the cycle so the two rotations alternate cleanly.
Bid window
Why this screen exists Lines have to exist before anyone can bid on them. This is the once-per-quarter setup step: define the pattern, the nominal start, and any reposition days, and every rotation block for the quarter builds itself. Change one date and every block recomputes. That is the part the spreadsheet makes you do by hand.

Reposition days handle home-based lines like HB, where the nominal start date on the roster is the day the crew leaves home, not the day flying begins. The generator adds the reposition days to get the real on-duty date. All lines are shown together by default; use the toggle below to isolate one fleet if you need to check whether Phenom and Praetor cycles line up.

Setup is four fields per line. The generator handles the rest, including clipping the first and last blocks to the quarter boundary. Blocks shown here were checked against the current Q4 sheet and match for all four lines.
