Going from Sunday xday to Monday on call. Assigned a trip for 830pm Monday(assigned at normal time Sunday morning). Am I still on longcall from 1201am Monday until I go into rest for the 830pm report Monday night? Looking at a 30 hours in 7 issue. Thanks!

Did you YS that? That’s an early report for your first day on if you didn’t ask for it.

830pm isn't early? To the OP they may have released you to rest, but if not, then yes you are on call from 1201 until 10hrs prior to report.

I did not ys, I called crew scheduling and they said that since the last day of the 2nd trip I was assigned is a dead head it doesn’t count. Bottom line is that I land back in base at 157 hours of straight duty. So when I get to 168 I won’t have 30 hours in lookback. I guess I’ll call alpa today since scheduling told me to go pound sand

Hard to follow you.

What second trip are you talking about?

If you land in base at 157 hours then what’s the issue? You just can’t start another FDP unless you satisfy the 30 in 168 rest requirement.

So what you are saying is that you can fly up to 167 hours without 30 hours of rest?

I believe that is what he’s saying. When you get to hour 168 you’ll be on rest so as long as they’re not trying to assign you something else before your get 30 hours of rest you’re legal.

You can't be on an FDP without looking back over the past 168 hours and finding a 30 hour break. A DH only duty period does not qualify as an FDP, hence why there's no look back issue.

I thought he said previous day was an X-Day. What am I missing? 0830 is early as that would be the first day in a block of reserve days.

You start LC at midnight immediately following an X day. While you can't be given anything that starts before noon you most definitely can be called by 8:30 am to report at 8:30 pm.
