This provision has nothing to do with that either since we have multiple, overlapping SC periods.
I’ve been called on SC with a report in 45 min. Flat out told them I can’t make it and would be there in approximately 2 hours. 15 min after the original report time, I got two calls from CS asking where I was and I even had the captain call me from the cockpit wondering where I was!
So yeah, we even have pilots pushing other pilots on report times.
You’re free to use PWA provisions to your advantage but they are not all the same depending on your situation.
What is the reason VAS isn't being used? Less contactability means less avaiability. They literally can't contact you to make those multiple when and where phone calls to pressure you.
