I really hope by the time this happens, I will have the choice of not being reserve. Maybe, we will open a base where I live, then I will have a choice to not commute. Living in base, not doing reserve....that would be the life.
From the Negotiators Notepad:
The seventh short call to which a pilot may be converted in a bid period in which the ALV is 77:00 or higher (reserve guarantee 75:00 or greater) will be effective concurrently with the implementation of the new FARs which reduce the maximum allowable length of a short call to 14 hours.
From the same NNP about the "Average Daily Guarantee": Average Daily Guarantee of 4:30 per calendar day will be effective November 1, 2012.
