1) three hours before the scheduled report of the rotation, or
2) one hour before the scheduled start of the short call period.
Yep. I'm well aware of that, as are you apparently. What about the other 11,000 of us? I would expect my union to highlight exactly what you just posted in an email to the entire pilot group AT A MINIMUM....
In a perfect world that would have come out a few hours after the Flight Ops memo. In the real world of union and management collusion and a generally disengaged pilot group, I anticipate yet another concessionary LOA in short order.
I no longer have any faith in our MEC to actually look out for our best interests.
