However, if I land on the 20th with 80 hours credit or drop the 21st (last reserve day of the string) then I will be "full" and unable to be used the 28-1st, is that a correct statement?

Another option would be to yellow slip for a 1 day flight the 21st (assuming its legal) and take my credit above 80 hours, get short call and not get used (I think that gets you another hour?) which would leave me trying to find another 10 minutes of credit OR green slip on my days off from 22-27. Is this also a correct statement?

Finally, if I am at 80 hours by the 21st and am full for the month and green slip I am only paid 100% since I am a reserve holder. So if I find a 2 day trip I get 10:30 credit and payback days which would then have to be used on the 28-1st. OR I can take my 80 hours of credit and be off from the 22nd-1st. If this is correct then there is no advantage to green slipping those days off.

Basically, I need to fill up my reserve, as of now at 78:50, I'm at risk of being pushed all the way up to 99 hours. I find I don't typically overblock so I won't count on that. Thoughts?

Lot of stuff going on there! Thanks, as always!
