LOA 20

Amend Section 23 Z. 4. a. and b. as follows:
3. When a reserve pilot is scheduled for a known period of absence in the upcoming bid period, his X-days will be pro-rated for the absence under the chart in Section 12 N. 7. His reserve guarantee will be reduced by 1/30th or 1/31st for each day of the absence, and he will be paid the value of the absence in addition to any other pay for the bid period.
Exception: X-days will not be prorated for a period of absence due to CQ training.
Assume a 30-day bid period, with ALV = 75:00 and a reserve guarantee of 70:00 hours in the examples below.
a. Example 1 – Pilot has seven days of vacation in the bid period.
Results:
1) Pilot receives nine X-days.
2) Pilot’s reserve guarantee is reduced by 1/30th for each day of his vacation (70:00 – [7 x 2:20]) = 53:40 adjusted reserve guarantee for the bid period.
3) Pilot is paid 7 x 3:00 = 21:00 for the vacation in addition to any other pay for the bid period.
b. Example 2 – Pilot is scheduled for four days of CQ training.
Results:
1) Pilot receives 12 X-days.
2) Pilot’s reserve guarantee is reduced by 1/30th for each day of his CQ training (70:00 – [4 x 2:20]) = 60:40 adjusted reserve guarantee for the bid period.
3) Pilot is paid 4 x 3:15 = 13:00 for the CQ training in addition to any other pay for the bid period.
