NQ= No pay.
 

Just found out if you expire, even after filling out the template for sim time if you end up NQ that means No pay status.

If you can get NQAT (non qual awaiting training) that is paid status.

Its up to the individual chief pilot to review and give you that.

This is where we are now...

That doesn't seem right. Are you sure?

I spoke w CP today, I had filled out template for available sim times.

Expired recently, called and now have a month of NQ.

Was told non pay status.

Absolutely not right. I expired mid-May and I’ve still been getting paid. No NQ or NQAT on my schedule. Just says “expired” at the bottom. I still get calls from crew scheduling putting me on 30 hours of rest.

Even UNAs get a paycheck...

I’d talk to ALPA.

How about post the rest of the story! Did you get paid or not? I went NQ also. Crew Skeds can’t pay you in that situation as they don’t have access to the training records. It takes a call to the CP’s office and you will be paid. It was horrible for me. Took almost 90 seconds.

I did call CP, we talked for about five min, he said you will be put into NQ status and will not be paid until they train me. I asked if I could be put into NQAT (awaiting training) he said it needs to be reviewed but as of now no,
NQ no pay.
So my entire month is NQ no pay as of right now.

Did you comply with the FOM requirements. If you did your next call needs to be to DALPA. There must be a bit more to this story.

any chance you care to share with base? I’m going to expire (with the extension) in about 10 days...want to know if I need to be ready for a battle. You could PM if you don’t want to post it publicly. Thanks!

I believe the OP opted not to accept the 30 day extension. That’s the rub. This is called pilot pushing. So much for stopping the operation, setting the brake... we got your back

I’m on the ER been expired about a month already and don’t have CQ to get current til mid-August, still getting paid. Again, something is not right with your situation or explanation.
