The lights are all still OTS.
The lights are all still OTS.So I bet your chances of having to show are way greater than your chance of going.

But the steaks and cheap beer at the lake made up for it!

G. Category Freeze
1. A pilot who is awarded an AE or VD will incur a 24-month category freeze, and an entry level pilot will incur a 12-month category freeze.

The Company substituted equipment on the first leg and then decided 3 hours after we left to substitute equipment on the way back too.......

I also noticed that the trip was taken off the open board and assigned to someone else before they rolled the cards at noon - so I thought perhaps it went as "recovery flying" to someone else. But then this contractual time thing showed up as a reason?? Scratching head over here!
