But if you do that then you'd have to give it to all the oth... oh.



:cool:

What's the basis for trips given out on having a "reserve only" note? Why are some trips "reserve only"?

Built from another base's rotation

You must be near death then.😀 2014 hires are within 300 numbers of Capt in NY. You'd probably see 717 and Maddog Capt before a primo wide body FO position.

If another base does not have the reserves to cover it the trip may go to another base's reserves. They put that in there so it doesn't go through the whole trip coverage process in the new base. I've gotten a few of these assigned to me on reserve so I started looking at the reserve availability list from that base. They had more than enough coverage so I took screen shots and sent them to DALPA scheduling. They felt the company violated the PWA by working around the trip coverage sequence and filed a grievance. It's good to break out the PWA once in a while.

You sound pretty self entitled for a new guy. Most of the senior "deadwood" FO's "camping out" as you put it, have paid some pretty serious dues.

Haven't been on reserve in a couple years. Anyone know what time the earliest report can be on first day on call? Is shortcall 10am? What is earliest for long call?

Thanks.

Long call starts at Midnight on your first on call day, they have to give you 10 hours notice for a short call, and two hours (approx) from there to report so the earliest you can be assigned a sign in for a trip is 12 noon on day one.

I seem to remember something about that changing but can't remember if it was in NA15 or if it did in fact change.

As you can tell, I haven't sat reserve in a while.

First on call day the earliest they can assign you a trip is 10am. That has to be on your schedule by 3pm the day before. If it's not on there by 3, noon is your earliest report.

Yep, still true. Unless you YS for an earlier time.
