Thank you Slow. So the question is, if they have programmed their computer to assign trips to SC with 120 minutes to departure time, should a concern be raised to the Chief Pilot or ALPA?

The issue for Delta is that while a pilot might not be punished, we've still got an operational issue that could be fixed by better SC reserve utilization. I'm sure you would agree with me that Crew Scheduling mostly relies on their software for assignment of trips. At 05:00 in the morning, with a 05:15 notification and a 06:30 departure, there is simply no time to fix the coverage problem.
