Its still valuable for some extra money, but go grab some extra fly from a reserve assignment before you go digging in the TTGA bin.
Let’s clarify this a bit.
If you look through TTGA and under post notes, you see “Call Scheduling to pick this up”, that means this trip was assigned to a reserve, which means it’s been run through open time. If you call Scheduling and take it, it’s the same as bidding it straight - you get it at second year rate.
You find those trips either in TTGA or Open Time Awards with the code AR.
In TTGA, you can run a legality check and if legal, it’ll say so but it’ll also tell you to contact Scheduling for assistance. This pays second-year rates.
If it only says you’re legal, and no reference to call Scheduling - it pays first year rates.
