LEC reps are paid same as line pilots, which they are. They get individual trip drops as ALPA duties require. Their FPL drops are capped at the same 94.5. Any additional ALPA duty must be banked. Their days dropped must equal ALPA duty, otherwise their bank is debited, and if their overall bank is negative, cannot received FPL until it is repaid. Why would a LEC rep do ALPA duty at straight pay when it rains GS/IAs constantly?
I don't know why they do ALPA duty and I don't care. Maybe they are afraid of flying. Just stop referring to them as volunteers. 94.5 hours of pay for "expected" 18 days in the office is not volunteering.
