Number one, once you finish training on a new airplane, you DO NOT go back and fly your old airplane period. I'm pretty sure, at a minimum, you will be converted after OE if not before. For OE pay purposes, I think you might want to look at Section 11.B.5. Section 11.B is all about Training pay and credit.

Default Reserve GS question

I need help decrypting the PWA. I am on reserve for Oct and Nov. I have a 4 day GS that the first 2 days are X days (Oct bid) and the next 2 are RES days (Nov bid).

I got the pay and PB day stuff, but should I be given the 9 hours free of duty as well even for the spillover?

On Nov. 2nd when you get back, assuming it's a reserve day, you immediately go on long call. The soonest you can be called out is 12 hours anyway so it kinda takes the 9 hours out of the equation I think. It's not 12 hours on top of the 9 hours. At least I don't think it is.....

no, it means you won't finish training until after the 15th IIRC

I don't have a dog in this world series fight, I'd like to see either team win.

But even I'm melting and I still don't know who I really want to win. I have a soft spot in my heart for Cleveland but Cubs.

Outside the ball park, a Billy Goat was spotted doing a rain dance.

How about the 787? AFAIK we still have firm 2020 orders. Wether or not we actually get them on the other hand...

I don't really even like baseball much, but that was the best game of any sport I watched alll year. I am so glad I stayed up to see it.

That was a great game! I've been a Cubs fan all my life and I've never seen a team like this one. My wife was in tears. I still can't believe it.
