RAW is a shifty formula, but just as an example, if you had a RAW of 70 and needed 80 to get to RAW bucket 2, you could probably YS a 1-day trip on an X-day (or any day for that matter) to achieve RAW 80 through the CROC and Credit. Then sail out of the rest of the month unused. But if the trip didn't pay Credit, CROC alone wouldn't get you to 80.
Otherwise, hell yea, pay me RES guarantee plus anything I fly, I'd be cool with that too.
Credit and pay would be the same number effectively eliminating it. RAW and Days avail buckets would be unchanged. SCC are already paid above guarantee and would remain. Short call credits are not
credit so we need more descriptive language to discuss this in detail. I'll use hours as the substitute for the new term. All hours including training, vacation and trip time would accumulate as the hours you are paid. Once those hours were within the LCW you are finished being on call for the month. Guarantee would be the ALV. You could still YS if you choose. QCQ, SCC, and add pay would still apply as extra payments and would be paid in full separately. (effectively above guarantee)
