I had a carryover into March of about 15 hours. Any ideas why I was removed? The line was published - how does it have a 32-in-7 problem? I must be missing something. I didn't see notification until after business hours on Friday and conflict/input window closes early Monday.
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
First, I think that according to FAR 121.483, the pairing was legal. There is no 32 in 7 for flag operations with an RFO. If you flew into the 29th, your 1st day would be the 29th. The seventh day would be the fourth of April. Your OAK-ANC leg was on the fifth, so all hour before the 30th wouldn't count against you for 32 in 7 for your 2 man flag operation.
I suggest you call contract enforcement and the sig to see about this. If they revised your pairing and you are no longer legal, you get trip guarantee. I think you should be getting paid for this, not sub or M/U.
Just how I read the contract and FAR's. Could be wrong.
