He was never notified.
Is this kosher? The SRH mentions YS's being proffers if less than 12 hours from first attempted contact -- but there was no attempted contact.
To add to what OOfff said, don’t acknowledge anything unless you have to…obviously there are some times you have to. Sounds like scheduling went fishing and got a bite.
And fwiw, MiCrew is still not a legal* means of notification per the SRH.
*When we say “legal,” do we mean PWA compliant or FAR compliant?
Asfor YS…be careful what you have in there in terms of standing qualifiers and/or a blanket slip for the on call days. My opinion only, but I suggest only YS-ing specific rotations rather than entering parameters.
