1.yes 2.yes 3.all of them except Hawaii 4. Yes, 8 hours if you are first reserve. Other than that no, if the TA gets approved then it's 8 hours regardless of your rap assignment if followed by a day off.
5. Single days off will always be in your schedule. It's how we operate. You will usually work Sunday Monday and Thursday Friday. Until you are senior enough to hold multiple days off in a row this will most likely be your schedule. Even then we have 100% staff days.
Thanks for the answers, and for being so pleasant about it! No need to be a forum Nazi. Ever heard the saying, "Things change"?
For those of us that don't work there we don't know if/when a new base may open or close. We don't know when they may assign another aircraft to a base. We don't know all the ins and outs of your crew plannings whims and where they need people every month. And incase you haven't noticed in this industry, just because it was true last week/month doesn't mean it's true now.
Thanks again though! Have a great day.
