They expected us to be crew rested and ready to fly 24/7 but they wouldn’t pay us for this expectation and availability. There was no ready reserve or standby program. I cited their blatant violation of FAR 135.267 in my response. I don’t know what ever happened to their BS warning letter and I haven’t mentioned it to any of my other employers and it hasn’t come up since. As far as I’m concerned I didn’t do anything wrong. Thoughts about reporting this issue on my FedEx or any other mainline Application?
Would there be a different outcome for an expectation and availability if duly compensated? Just asking...
