Does anybody know if there is a limit to how much time u can pull from your bank to fill up your month to the greenslip trigger?

I have a 4 day I need to drop but it will put me at like 61 hours for the month.

you can only borrow 5 hours in a month that you have a greenslip, however you can pull up to 20 in a month not to exceed a max of -30 in your bank in a month if you just want to fill up.

Never needed to do this, but if ever I did, how do you borrow from the bank, who do you contact to arrange that? Thanks

iCrew.
Pay and hours.
Bank
Bank request
Read the instructions on what letter to fill in and how much you can do. There is no 'who' anymore. Hasn't been for years.

You newbies need to get familiar with the FSB (Full Service Bank). If you use it judiciously you can make some serious coin.

Let the arguments begin about borrowing all you can (which I adamantly disagree with)

Freq clear.

Here's a skull scratcher: ATL 717a coverage today, trips 0620 and 0621. 0620 is a RES with a stupid early report to bring a jet to LEX and then DH back on it immediately after. 0621 is for a pilot to DH to LEX tonight and then fly that very same plane back to ATL that the RES is DHing on. Why even have the WS? These trips make zero sense, either pilot should be legal to just fly both legs of 0620.

Oh, NM. I now see what happened. Different days. Not that I'd have trashed a guy's easy 2 day WS!

They make mistakes all the time. I was once called to DH from SLC to ONT and fly back. Spoke to outbound crew and they had been called to Fly SLC to ONT and DH back. Quick call to scheds and we tossed a coin to see which crew went. Sadly we lost!

Similar story. Once got a GS to fly to LGA, DH back to DTW. While boarding to go back to DTW, I recognized that the FO had DH’d with us on the inbound flight. He was also on a GS: DH to LGA, fly back to DTW. Easy money.
