Yesss!

But this assumes one could program the IAF and a holding procedure in the container.

ALPA is correct.

You have to have 10 hours of rest before starting a FDP. Since you are not at rest when on long call, the min report time to a trip assigned when on LC is 10 hours. If the report time is 12 hours or more they would just give you a regular reserve assignment.

Not so sure about that. I️ got awarded a GS that reported a few hours before a SC I️ had been assigned. Got the call while in my SC ‘rest’ period.

Scheduled or actual block in?

Either....sked will already give you the xtra pay regardless of over or under. Actual would simply ensure you get it.

It must have been a report time of 10 hours after you were released from LC to rest. Otherwise you weren’t legal to start the the FDP.

Contractually it’s release time. It was 3AM and was improved to 2AM in the last contract.

Two things here. One the coverage ladder does not apply for a delayed flight. It applies during the award process as the rotation was originally constructed.
On the GS award the contract never trumps the FAR’s. FAR’s take precedence.

Didn't know his flight was delayed at the time I replied. Also aware that the FARs would always take precedence over the contract, just felt odd that such an obvious oversight was still in the contract if it indeed violates 117.
