Domestic rules vs intl, vs ULH all different. I will admit I don't even think about domestic rules. I only think of ULH. I understand your confusion with what I said and I'll go back to coloring.

If I do my QCQ while deadheading on a GS, do I get double pay?

Within a couple of months we will all get our very own copy of the release on our tablets and sign it electronically. That will really get the South guys wound up.

Have any of you been getting the release from the new I-crew mobile? Who cares about a paper copy and how someone splits it up now that we can get a nice easy to navigate electronic copy.

Has anyone ever got the "updated" weather and had it make any difference on anything related to whether or not to go in the last 10 years? Kinda like the landing gear lever DOWN in the old preflight checklist. Did anyone EVER find the landing gear lever UP when they got to an airplane? It seems dumb to me to continue to do something that serves no purpose just because that is how we have always done it.

It has nothing to do with domestic vs intl. You are talking nonsense and are wrong. A GS on reserve is the same regardless of Intl vs domestic. Still missing your point. Stick to coloring

He seems to think that the rules apply differently if you are domestic vs international. He is clearly out of touch driving around his 777 and doesn't know what he is talking about in regards to how GS on reserve work. Deflect away scambo but you are wrong

EDIT: After posting, I saw that the very next section beyond what I was reading gives the pay above the guarantee for the first duty period if it is a less than 12 hour call out just like you originally said. Now I see where you are coming from and my post was not entirely correct.

Don't forget about 23 U.1.c., which states that a long call pilot who gets a GS for a trip with less than 12 hours to report on an on-call day gets paid above the guarantee for that duty period.

You are absolutely correct. I realized my error shortly after hitting post.

I have had both of these pay as GS.

I believe that you are correct in the above scenarios and both of these situations would pay as a GS even though it was an "on-call" day. Other than those two situations, I am not sure that it would be a GS.

Not sure about schedulers letting you move an X day to an on call day but its worth a try.

Scoop
Here's how it works: I'm on RES. Today and tomorrow are my last 2 days on call for this block, then I have 2 days off. I've put in for a blanket 4 day GS request, and I happen to get assigned one starting tomorrow (which is an on-call day). This trip has a 30 hr layo on day 2, so there is no duty period. This trip is 4 days long, the first and last days of the trip I'm on-call, and the 2 middle days are X days on my schedule.
I can request through SKEDS that one of those X days (has to be within the rotation, and not have a duty period) be moved to the first day of the rotation. In this senario, this will give me pay above guarantee on day one (hopefully high time on day one), pay and credit for day 2 (no duty period, and all credit is paid on the last day of a rotation), pay above guarantee on day 3, and pay and credit for day 4. In this case, I'm getting more money paid above guarantee (GS pay for RES), because I moved that X day from a non-duty period day, to day one. So essentially, I'm now getting 2 days paid above guarantee instead of 1. You will also receive 2 PB days for this trip.
Clear as mud?
