But that's the thing, they don't do calculations according to the SRH example 3. At least in my experience. I've rolled a lot of thunder and have literally had close to 100 Reserve GS's over the years (albeit not this summer), and as far as I have ever been aware, CS universally sees PB and goes from there. (Amazingly, to our benefit.) CS can barely keep up with even the simplified math as it is, they do not dig down into the "other than midnight" end times as indicated in example 3. Kinda like the "rounding up" of a PR to a PB upon a subsequent GS. It's universally done.
Genuine question - have you ever seen CS actually calculate per example 3? If so, has that changed within the last year? Maybe I'm just not keeping up.
Not to split hairs, but a PR is not always owed/represented. A domestic rotation which releases at 1500, once 9 hours is added, will have the last PB end right at 0000. No PR.
All well and good, until Scheduling developed a payback day calculator that aligns with the PWA/SRH that knows not to round a PR up to a PB.
