you will not lose pay. Only the credit, or time for the day you fly, will repay the bank.

Hey guys, brief break in the 117 discussion.

I sent in my sick leave verification form all filled out and signed by my doc but my sick leave account still shows "unverified." Does it take awhile for them to process the forms? And, if not, who should I talk to?

Thanks!

To the best of my knowledge "promptly available" basically means you have around two hours to report.

Note: I don't think the 2 hour limit is actually written in the contract - it might be written in "When Scheduling Calls" or possibly "When Steve Dickson Commands" I am not really sure. :)

No, it is not, I think its counterproductive to the cause to use terms like "PWA abrogation" when it is clearly not.

Have you called in well yet? I had the same issue and I was told that they don't verify the hours until you call in well since they don't know how many hours need to be verified until that time. I called in well and the next day the hours in question were listed as verified.

S/C acknowledgement is basically the same as long call acknowledgment because you are on long call first and then assigned short call. Once on short call here is the verbiage from the contract"


13 9. A short call pilot:
14 a. will remain on short call for a period that:
15 1) is designated by Crew Scheduling, and
16 2) does not exceed:
17 a) 12 hours in domestic categories, or
18 b) 24 hours in international categories.
19 Note: An international category pilot who has been on short call for 12 hours will
20 not be assigned a domestic rotation with a scheduled report earlier than nine hours
21 after notification.
22 b. must be promptly available for contact by Crew Scheduling during his short call
23 period until the earlier of:
24 1) the end of the short call period, or
25 2) his departure to report for an awarded/assigned rotation.
26 Exception: A pilot will not be required to be available for contact during the first two
27 hours of his short call period as follows:
28 a) At the time the pilot is notified of his conversion to short call, the pilot will
29 advise Crew Scheduling that he will be:
30 i. traveling to his base, and
31 ii. unavailable for contact during the first two hours of the short call.
32 b) The pilot must be able to report for a rotation with a report as early as two hours
33 after the start of the short call period.
34 c) When the pilot arrives at his base, he assumes responsibility for acknowledging
35 any rotation placed on his line by checking his schedule via DBMS or
36 contacting Crew Scheduling.
37 d) When the pilot checks his schedule, his line may contain a rotation with a report
38 as early as two hours from the start of the short call period.


To the best of my knowledge "promptly available" basically means you have around two hours to report.
