Jan FO DP picked up (FDX)
 

:mad:

Just when you thought we were running low on urinal cakes in ANC.

I it is 53/26Jan the guy got it on reserve. If this is the one you're talking about, you gotta do a little research before you pee all over him. A retraction might be in order....

Pretty obvious he got it on reserve. Get with the program Mr. Zilla.

Yes off of Reserve. I wonder Why was it assigned so early.-- at least 3 days.

Answered my own question.

1.The Company may advance assign a reserve pilot a trip(s) from open time in accordance with Section 25.G.1. (Open Time Assignments), only for the following purposes:
a.to satisfy FAR experience requirements for the least restrictive operating limitations (e.g., CAT II/III minimums, 100 block hours in 90 days, 75 block hours in new equipment); or
b.to comply with visa acquisition procedures; or
c.to cover an open time trip that is more than 50 hours TAFB, such assignment shall not be awarded greater than 7 days in advance.

Fire, ready, aim.

Zila, I like your fiery enthusiasm and your urinal cake metaphor . Never let the facts get in the way of a good snap judgement. Don't listen to these naysayer d bags on APC. Keep fighting the good fight!
Sincerely,
George W.

Point fingers first ask questions later. My bad!:o

Sorry Mr. T, didn't think they assigned reserves that far out.

This just highlights the standard reserve b.s. that happens daily in ANC. Almost every trip is greater than 50 TAFB so they do this on a regular basis. They assign it to the the pilot who's footprint "optimizes their reserve footprint", regardless of seniority or levelling.

Levelling means nothing. One of my many requested reserve fixes for Section 6 in Oct.
