I'm not so sure about that. Several times our council newsletter has said they count total days you are listed as sick. Say that you have a 4 day trip on Mar 2-6, then have an no trips until say, March 20th - and then you call in sick March 1st, and call in well on March 19th (there by missing only a 4 day trip), you were sick for more than 15 days, so you are
required to verify the sickness even though you only were sick for a 4 day trip.
So they certainly DO look at the total days you were out sick.
From our C20 newsletter:
When is verification required?
Section 14. F. 3 & 4 of the PWA requires a pilot to verify his/ her illness ONLY under the following circumstances:
· When you have been absent on a single sick occurrence 15 or more consecutive
calendar days (including days off
between trips).
