I'll be out of town and don't plan on returning until I absolutely have to to make my show time. Question is...Can they call me the day before and reassign flying that starts earlier than currently scheduled? I'll start to look it up, but I figured I'll get a faster answer and maybe a reference here first. Thanks.
Update: I did find in the PWA that they cannot make you report earlier than originally scheduled (at least that's the way I read it). Anyone confirm I'm reading it right?
You might have already gotten an answer, I just didn't see a post relating to it so here goes:
Once your trip is taken for training, scheduling will try and notify you the day prior as to your new obligations (if a new trip is assigned it has to duty in at or after you original and duty out 4 hrs after or midnight....read midnight the last day)
Now if they can't contact you to notify you of the new assignment within 3 hrs of your original duty in they will remove said recovery flying. At this point you are a short call resv pilot for the foot print of your trip....but if they don't assign anything to you by the first 6hrs (I think) of your resv obligation you are released for the remaining duration of the foot print of the original trip.
Clear as mud?
Cheers
