Got a pop up that Q4 CQC is due 30 nov, but the fleet page says end of December. Anyone got the straight poop? Sorry if this was covered already

In was blessed with short call tomorrow afternoon/PM on Turkey Day. Is there a web site or somewhere to see when the last flight departs a hub on your specific airframe? I have a feeling I will still be on short call long after the last of my fleet departs base and I was hoping for some intel to help me possibly get released early.

At first, I thought that I could just check the bid package but there may be flights from other bases moving through my base.

Thanks,
Humbolt

All that will have no bearing on Crew Scheduling. There will likely be flights with crews from other bases going through your base. There can be overflights than divert into your base, MX problems that delay a flight for hours that they have to recrew using you. They could deadhead on on a different airplane type to an outstation to cover a flight out in the morning. Etc etc.

Scheduling won't let you go any earlier than 2 hours before you are done....which really isn't a favor because they can't really use you then anyways.

Ahh, but they can. You can fly four hours beyond the end of a 12 hour short call in many cases. I'd take the 2 hour early release and feel pretty good about it.

Technically just 2 hours unless you agree to extend 2 more hours right? I think an extension in that scenario would be a very poor choice. Extensions are for duty days that get delayed for whatever reason.....not a reserve guy working 2 more hours.
