Excuse my lack of knowledge of section 11 as it pertains to FLEX's
When you work in the Training dept, for a month's schedule not on the line, You get paid "Pay Only" line value for a line you bid but do not have to fly. In other words your awarded PAY ONLY line is line xyz and it's credit value is 76:30 (4 week month) and it had 13 days off.
So how do you not get paid 6 hours per day if let's say you:
Day 1 DH MEM to DFW and get a 12 hour layover,
...
Day 8 DH back to MEM
Now you get 5 days off (involate days) and repeat the above schedule.
for 8 more days.
Day 9 DH MEM to DFW and get a 12 hour layover,
...
Day 16 DH back to MEM
You are getting paid 76:30 in your pay only line......??
You are getting $800-1000 Flex override......??.
What would you get paid with the above scenario under todays rules?
I am just curious as to what the problem is since I do not work under section 11 and am a little confused.
Under the current contract, a Flex Instructor training away from base will divide the CH on his Pay Only awarded line by 6CH, rounded to the nearest whole number. In your example, the 76:30 / 6 = 12.75 or 13 days. In most months, he is also entitled to 2 FLY days. Allowing for 2 days of travel that count as Work days, he will train offsite for 9 days. If he comes anywhere close to working the schedule you've proposed, he'll be getting draft pay for at least 5 days.

In a 4-week month, you'll work 15 of the 28 days. I count 13 days off.

Many were working 15 days before, they were just getting those 3 "extra" days at draft.
Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner!
