It has completely evaporated.

In almost all cases now, the contract flight time limit is the FAR flight time limit.

Quick question, I am looking at my time card and I have 15 hours of reroute pay. Is it a straight pay or double pay? Is it already counted in the credit column of the time card?

Thanks.

Perhaps this has been covered recently in the last 1745.4 posts......but....

I can't commute into my 0630 shortcall now? I already know the answer. Seriously, who's bright idea was it to give in on this one? Oh wait....i'm ATL based so I guess I'm expected to move to Peachtree, right?

It's single pay on top of what you see the pay column.

You probably flew over the Crimea if taking the Northern route. That airspace has been closed. Obvious issues going on with the normal southern routes in the Middle East.

I've also done that and never flew over Crimea or Ukraine. We fly over Bulgaria across the Black Sea into Turkey.

MH17 was way north of where the other flights were, apparently that airspace has been closed. Russia reports they were trying to reach that aircraft.
