Default 30/7 question

I have a RES line in June and blocked 9:52 for the 29-30th. Now I have a REG line on July 1 with a trip that blocks 19:38 which obviously puts me over 30 in 7 days.

I called Skeds to alert them of the conflict and they said I was legal to start the rotation. The Capt I was with said they should adjust your rotation prior to starting it to get rid of the conflict.

So which is it?

Thanks for any insight.

All the best, Carl! I will dedicate my first magic carpet ride in your honor, too.

I already miss Carl. I missed T also, for awhile.

Anyhoo, test flighted the magic carpet ride last night/this morning on the red eye to CVG. Works great!

Am I completely stupid or does that only equal 29:40?? It's been a long couple days.

You're legal to start at 29:40, however if you over block on day 1 by 21 minutes, they'll have to make an adjustment before you duty on day 2 - because then you will be illegal. They will contest this, but remind them that you can't accept an illegal assignment, nor may they legally assign you one.

It's a great group of guys, you'll fit right in. Actually, you're probably cooler than most.

I think you DL L&G guys should make it a project to get boomer hired. Somedays I only have time to briefly scan L&G, but everytime I see his kitten avatar I make sure to stop and read it, it's bound to be insightful, truthy, entertaining, or underboobly!

What's the conflict? Adds up to 29:30 doesn't it?

And scheduling knows the rules, I'd trust them more than some guy you flew with.

Isn't that 29:30 in 7?
