Now, that's normal if it's a Q "qualified" drop showing up in open time, but these are NOT Q trips, just normal ones with no Q showing.
I'm thinking that if a trip can be dropped due to sufficient reserve coverage, the FO's name should not be assigned against it when it hits open time--my name never shows up when I drop a trip and see it in open time. So what are these non-Q trips I see in OT with an FO still listed? Anyone else notice these, usually about 5% of trips? In my experience you may be seeing dynamic scheduling in action as the schedulers try test-fitting that rotation on a bunch of pilot's schedules to see how they work. Sometimes you see that on a greenslip callout where they are working down the list; they put it on someone's schedule, call him, wait the 10 minutes to see if he acknowledges, then put it on the next guy's schedule, call him, etc. You can watch the progress in open time as the name changes every 10 minutes until someone takes the trip. Its usually not going to show up on Trip Coverage page until acknowledged, but sometimes that shows a dynamic progress, too. |

In my case it wasn't the wheels. Made the mistake of putting my Purty Neat Bag below on a DH. They must've run over it with a tug to bend the metal frame. Ended up replacing the bag. Never put one below on a DH again.

Klondike,
iaflyer is correct that the earliest you could be assigned to report for a trip or begin a short call would be 12:16 pm on the 31st. The other time is incorrect though. Crew Scheduling would have to place the assignment on your schedule 9 hours prior to you going on call, which in this case would be no later than 17:16 on the 30th. (When your on-call day begins at midnight, the cutoff is 15:00.) If you checked your schedule after 5:16 pm on the 30th and nothing was there, you would simply go on long call at 2:16 am on the 31st with a 12 hour callout. |

This will be standard in the US within the next 10 years. Delta has a team on the 4th floor working on this project.
But seriously, this is the next step in the EtD, a zero to hero program, however, getting around the FAA 1500 ATP is still the biggest hurdle. It isn't going to work, and there is no way Delta pilots are going to let MPL pilots take over on long haul aircraft. AA however, is doing it right with mapping out the career progression of the express carrier pilots. 9E alone is going to lose triple digit numbers of pilots to one of the AMR wholly owned carriers. |

(re: the travel pro roller bag inventor…company used to be called 'Purdy Neat Bags', as I recall) I think the Jet-Eze bags with retractable gear preceded the travel pro and P-N-T bags. The inventor was a 747 captain who went by Dutch. Tr |
