Classdate later this month, so dont know the current book, but curious what the main improvements to reserve are.
The main improvement I've found is limiting LC to SC conversions to 6 times a month, end of involuntary FSB, as well as the improved call-out times and increased days off.
So with 20-K-1-f-(1)-(c) in mind, does this mean 75% of reserves will be awarded long call and 25% of reserves would be awarded short call if reserve is 20% of the category for that month? And if 25% reserve for a category, all reserves would need to be offered long call? Just want to clarify that I am reading it correctly
The way I read Long Call lines is the amount of LCL offered is based of the percentage of the Reserve lines. For simple math, lets say 100 pilots in a Category, and 20% is on reserve. So 20 pilots on reserve. Then take 15% (from the chart in 20-K-1-f-(1) ) of those on reserve and that what the company has to offer for pure LCL. So total of 3 LCL offered.
Unless one volunteers to be an early check in reserve or a Voluntary Short Call line, everyone else will be bidding “normal” reserve. So like today will begin as a long call reserve, subject to the assignment matrix.
