You don't need to acknowledge a short call until one hour to the start of the short call.

6. A long call pilot who is assigned a rotation or converted to short call:
a. prior to release from a rotation, must acknowledge such assignment or conversion prior to release.
b. via telephone contact or electronic placement on his schedule on his last non-fly day (other than a vacation day) before an on-call day, must acknowledge such assignment or conversion no later than:
1) three hours before the scheduled report of the rotation, or
2) one hour before the scheduled start of the short call period.

The More you Know.

Keep in mind that the pwa and far pt 117 don't agree. Far 117 says you need to acknowledge 10 hrs prior in order to get your prospective rest.

Just an FYI.

True. But, if you acknowledge inside the 10 hours, you are not really breaking an FAR - as long as you don't actually fly! However, if the company tries to ding you for not acknowledging prior to 10 hours, they ARE violating the contract. (As long as you met the 3 hour requirement, of course)

Commuting to reserve will be tough..... JS ain't gonna cut it especially with CASS logs...........

My hope is we get something because hotel costs are going to kill me...

My hope for any end to the stagnation on the west coast is dashed...

I guess 117 says no more underboob.

Because there hasn't been any since Jan 1st.

:confused:

Jennifer Lawrence didn't show any underboob, but she does like to let them breathe!

I had to go back and watch Jennifer Lawrence 25 more times just to get those picts out of my brain!:D

Cool. Point is, if you acknowledge your SC one hour prior to its start, you ain't really sitting SC. I guess maybe they could DH you somewhere?
