  2. The first pilot offered a DRF assignment shall be the next pilot senior to the last pilot who accepted a DRF assignment.
How, exactly, is this being complied with while using a blanket crew notification? Am I to assume that people are calling them back in reverse seniority order?

Just another example of the contract not being followed...maybe. Something our lawyers should be looking at, and our Union should be addressing in a communication to us.

Two weeks ago I got a crew notification that they were drafting for a particular day. A week ago I got called for a draft trip. I dont live in MEM. Things must really be bad. I cant imagine the pressure that the schedulers must be under to get trips covered.

Whoever dropped the ball on our pilot staffing should be drop kicked out the door. I would imagine PC would be the whoever.
