Would I get double pay, over and above my reserve pay? Would I get double credit toward my reserve commitment? What's the deal?
On reserve, an inverse assignment acts just like a green slip. You get paid for the trip, as long as it is all on days off, above the reserve guarantee and you get your days off back. They become PB days and start at your first oncall day after the trip. If there are no more days in the month left and you are still owed days off, they go into your PB day bank which is located at the bottom of your Time Card.
If you don't mind flying on your days off and having them slipped for more pay, don't call back.
