Agreed. And the bipartisan support to cut military retirements while supporting benefits for illegal aliens blows my mind. We're so lost. They're all (or almost all) careerists who could care less about their electorate. How dare they pass Obamacare and then exempt themselves from the same requirements.

Done. Tired. Can't even watch any more.

The trend is to cut earned or paid for benefits and to leave the unearned untouched.

Yep. And for those of us who voted for this.....including a very good friend of mine....how's that working out for you? I asked him the other day if he was dumping his DAL medical for Obamacare....not so much.

Sorry for the identical question that Boog asked. I was scrolling on my phone past the new posts and didn't see his post.

Is this right with FAR 117? Your first day of reserve the first sign in time is at 1200 base time or a 1000 SC.

Example:
On your first on call day following your last non-fly day, you check your schedule at 0200 base time. After that check, you are then required to acknowledge a trip assignment no less than 3 hours before sign-in (the earliest rotation/SC assignment is 0500 on your first on-call day). Scheduling has assigned you a rotation that reports at 0600. Are you legal?

NO. According to FAR 117, you are not legal because you need at least 10 hours rest before starting a flight duty period. In this scenario, the earliest report for a rotation is 1200 (i.e., you acknowledge assignment at 0200, add 10 hours of rest, which brings you to 1200).

You only are legal for the 1200 report if you acknowledge the assignment at least 10:00 prior to report.

Should you choose to exercise your rights under the PWA to its fullest and acknowledge the assignment at say 3:01 prior to report(no less than 3 hours before report), you will be illegal by FAR and yet fully in compliance with the PWA!

It's an interesting scenario....

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in this case, I think scheduling would drop your resv day with a PD and you wont get paid for that resv day.
