Makes logical sense, I can also see the argument that you're still on a LC day even if rest is assigned on top of it.
Aren't vacation days and coming from a REG line considered to be in that same category? I thought coming off those days you couldn't be assigned earlier than 18 hours.

Coming off REG there is no carve, and coming off REST over a LC day there is. I'm guessing there is an ALPA blast or something that has this written down.

Not everything needs to be spelled out to be obvious.

From: Looking left
Can someone point me to 30 hrs rest = a non‐fly day? The definition of non‐fly day is,
“Non-fly day” means a day or 24-hour period during which a pilot:
a. does not perform flying for the Company,
b. is not scheduled to perform flying for the Company,
c. does not participate in training, other than distributed training (including travel days),
d. does not perform an SLI duty period (including a flex day),
e. is not on Company business,
f. is not removed from his scheduled rotation for the convenience of the Company, or
g. is not on long call or short call.
I can read "g" both ways when you have a 30 hour rest covering a LC day.

Ok thanks. Follow on question - if I have a 2 day block of reserve due to a PD (3-99-5) can I move one of the LC days to a 3+ LC block and leave a single day stranded? Or will iCrew deny that because of the minimum reserve block logic?
