>>>Fifth, remember LOA 19 was voted on and approved by 86.76% of DALN pilots who voted. [/quote]<<<

Are you talking about LOA 19 from April 2009? If so, I don't think that is an accurate percentage. DALN pilots didn't vote on that particular LOA.

Actually, Alfa put together some neat stuff under the Mergers and Acquisitions Forum. Try this link: http://www.airlinepilotforums.com/me...a-reserve.html

If its under 12 hours to report, it is just a proffer, you can turn it down for one of the reasons listed in the contract. Off the top of my head, not in position, childcare, drinking and one or two more. You can always try calling scheds and begging for mercy.

While we are on the subject of reserve - what is the payback if you fly you into an X day?

Scoop

Bummer man. I knew this, as I was afraid to YS anything before I knew what obligations I'd have. Last month I had the same thing happen, except I was able to catch the last flight.

Now I have a question.

If I'm on my last Non-flying day & they assign me SC(I agknowledge it) but before 1500 LBT they call me with a YS trip then I have to accept, yes? The change come before 1500.

Now, if they call AFTER 1500 on my last Non Fly day, then I'm only required to be available during my SC period, yes?

Discuss...... :p

I think they just slide the X day. No xtra pay.

Johnso.
Prior to 1500 your are obligated. After if you answer you are obligated. If not you have your last assignment. They will try again at midnight if it is after a 1200 report for another mush ack.

Scoop IA and GS give the day back plus any required rest.If they just fly you, they move the day.

Thank you, thank you...thank you!!!!....Alfaromeo...the voice of reason and of the facts....You should be in an ALPA leadership position!...Maybe you are..(I hope).

I don't know if others on this thread have been following this little controversy, but they should. NuGuy's attitude reflects the typical political culture of minority, self interest infighting that is exactly the opposite of what should be in a union.

Nuguy...you didn't dispute one iota of Alfa's discription of the facts in this dispute, you only respond with technicality-justified, essentially emotional, narrow interest "facts", and you do so in a most disgustingly cynical way...(Boy Scouts?). And you do so with absolutely no...zero..."0"..."goose-egg" concern for the long-term interests of the whole group... Nuguy,... ad hominem attacks are the last resort of a failed argument....You sir, to use a technical phrase...have been "handed your A$$" in this argument, -factually, logically, and especially on "style points"...give it up...."take a knee!"

Alfa...go to a neutral corner, this is a TKO....Great job!!!

Remember- If you high yellow when you're on long call, it is a proffer. You can refuse it or just not call them back. I personally don't answer so I can see what they've got in the voicemail, then call them back if I want it.

Know what call status you're on and what your responsibilities are. Anything that is less than a report time for a long call when you're on long call is a proffer. If you're on short call, you're expected to be readily available.

If you've volunteered for something that is optional, whether or not you're on long call, the safest thing to do is let it go to voicemail and see what they have to offer. Yeah yeah yeah, nuguy will have a field day with that because that's what he does, but it's so unbelievably easy.

PM me if you have any further questions.
