Just to clarify, and I know we all know this but if you're flying international you need a SIC type at a min and an augmented crew a PIC type (7ER, 777, 765, and in the case of CAL 737s who do augmented crews :rolleyes:).

So everyone should have an SIC type unless their plane absolutely does not go outside of the U.S.

So are we asking if it is a PIC type on the 320?

I have a couple reserve questions:

If I am sitting long call on my last day of reserve before an X-day, is it safe to go home (leave base) fairly early in the morning (like 10am)?

Are they allowed to give out trips that start on X-days?

How often do they do it if it's allowed?

Is it pretty common to work involuntarily on X-days?

I've sat reserve every month but 3 at DL and have never worked on an X-day that I didn't volunteer for.

Agreed. It is VERY rare.
But be careful. If its gonna happen it will be around Xmas or the Super Bowl.
A lot of sudden flu cases among line holders seem to occur at those times.
Only other possibility is major IROPS. ie => snow in Atlanta.
Any trace of snow or ice at Hartsfield is a 5 alarm red light emergency for Delta Ops.

Well guys, I just got a MEC Memo on the JAL JV. It is in effect info on the deal. I guess complaining on here works. Thanks for listening! This is the info that is needed for our group!

Good job MEC!
