Why doesn’t the company contact the pilots who are running out of recency and ask them if they are comfortable extending. It’s not an unreasonable request.
If you have not heard the company is extending recency your living under a rock. I expected to be extended and logged on to check. Besides if the company does not extend you it’s a win for the pilot! If they do extend you it’s to fly the schedule you bid. Trust me, I use the contract in my favor every chance I get. If I were going to refuse a legal extension which I think the pilot should have a right to do even though it’s not supported contractually I am going to give the company notice in advance.
