Assuming there aren’t enough hours to fall out of your 12 bid period look back, you would be on the hook for verification in October though. Take a look at that notepad and let me know what you think.
Admittedly, I have never had to verify as I have fallen under the less than 50 exclusion since this was implemented. I’m sure at some point it will snag me though and I want to make sure my understanding is accurate.
Looks like the only thing we really disagree on is, I think you will have to verify that second sick call. you are already over 100 hrs when you call in sick. Even if it is in the same month and here is why. Section 14 F.2
Subject to Section 14 F. 6., a pilot who has used more than 100 but not more than 160 hours of sick leave in the 12 completed bid periods preceding the start of a sick occurrence, other than sick leave that has been verified under Section 14 F. 4., will be required to verify such occurrence within 21 days of its start by providing to his Chief Pilot or the Pilot Support Center either a QHCP certificate or a doctor’s certificate.
The above makes no mention of month. It does make mention of bid periods but that is in a look back capacity.
