Can you green slip while on a reserve day if the trip goes into off days? Or would that be a yellow slip?

Yes. Same rules apply but in reverse for GS into on call days.

Scenario:

A RES pilot has a YS in to fly on RES days.
He is on 30-hr rest (non layover.)
During that 30-hr rest he checks his schedule, sees a rotation that reports 3 hours after his rest ends. He acknowledges.
He was never notified.

Is this kosher? The SRH mentions YS's being proffers if less than 12 hours from first attempted contact -- but there was no attempted contact.

To add to what OOfff said, don’t acknowledge anything unless you have to…obviously there are some times you have to. Sounds like scheduling went fishing and got a bite.

And fwiw, MiCrew is still not a legal* means of notification per the SRH.

*When we say “legal,” do we mean PWA compliant or FAR compliant?

Asfor YS…be careful what you have in there in terms of standing qualifiers and/or a blanket slip for the on call days. My opinion only, but I suggest only YS-ing specific rotations rather than entering parameters.

There is some truth and some bad info.

This was not a fishing expedition. As a reserve, anything placed on your schedule 9 hours prior to ending rest (x days or 30 hours) you are responsible for and will not be notified. Normally, this would allow them to put a trip on your schedule as early as 10 hours after starting long call vs the normal 12. HOWEVER, a "high yellow," which is a yellow without qualifiers, allows them to put a trip on your schedule that doesn't follow the normal reserve assignment restrictions.

Thanks CB. This sounds like the most accurate answer. I just can’t find the language that states this. If I hadn’t acknowledged and they called me when my rest ended and assigned me a rotation with a 3 hour report on long call, we’ll that doesn’t sound right.

If you YS a trip scheduling is not required to notify you. It’s on you to know what your slips are and self-notify and show up at report.

And where is this written?

The SRH talks of greater that 12 hours from first attempted contact. But there was no attempted contact since I was on rest.

A yellow slip communicates your wishes. If you wish to fly a rotation that reports earlier than the company is otherwise allowed to task you, this is your mechanism to communicate that. That flexibility is definitely a plus as long as you understand how it works. I’m honestly not sure where that is written and understand it can surprise people. Perhaps a checkbox would be more intuitive [Allow early report YES/NO?], but there’s no way icrew will be reprogrammed and frankly I don’t want any more check boxes to fill or verify.
