Okaaay... so why did you call me. Um, don't know.
I would of thought the computer would of figured that out, before my name showed up on the GS list for those rotations.
They tried to give me 2 illegal trips last week. One illegal per whitlow, and one per the pwa. The sched even told me he was brand new. I also almost cnx a flight for no 24 hour break within 7 days which I gave them plenty of heads up for. Went out fine, but was within 5 mins of cnx. Not a good plan in my opinion.
BL, know the contract and the FARs because it appears the computer ain't catching everything and the scheds are not pilots.
