Beyond that, I'm clueless. LOL! Trust me, I'm trying! Maybe another example of what you were trying to convey? Would the San Diego turn be a trip ending in San Diego and beginning in LAX? Thanks much in advance. I guess that was why I was asking if someone could post an example of their reserve schedule for the rest of us amateurs to dissect. I had one from an SKW guy years ago but has since long disappeared.
All trips start and end in your base. In the example above I referenced a hypothetical SAN turn. Turn means an out and back trip, so you would be back to LAX long before your originally scheduled end time of 14:30 If you get an assignment that ends in LAX before 14:30 and they don't call or ACARS you with more flying within 15 minutes after you get to the gate in LAX, you just go off duty even though your original end time was 14:30. In other words, if they call you to fly on reserve, when you get back to base from that flight, you are done with work until you get a rest period, even if it is before your originally scheduled availability period is over.
