A helpful post, but we were trying to remember how long scheduling at NWA had us on the hook for when on reserve. :)

If they haven't notified you of your removal from original assignment by 12 hours prior to your original show then you have no recovery obligation. You'll be paid for your original trip. You can even WS.

However, if they do notify you before the 12 hr mark & you acknowledge your assignment BEFORE 3 hours PRIOR to your originally scheduled report time you're subject to 23.G.5.a.1

I just went through this at the beginning of the month. There were multiple trips in open time, & recovery flying guys get assigned open time BEFORE reserves so I preferenced the trips I wanted so I didn't get stuck with a crummy trip. If there are trips in open time I'd use the PCS option to pref unless you don't care. I commute, so I wanted to pick a commutable trip.

If they notify you before 12 hours but don't assign you a trip you have to be 'promptly available' from original report until 6 hours after.

Clear as mud? :)

Hope this helps.

I am not a contract expert on reserve but I don't believe the last sentence is correct. They have to assign you a trip prior to the 12 hours. They can not notify you that you are on reserve and make you go to base for 6 hours. The only way you end up on the 6 hour leash is if they attempt to assign you a trip and you do not acknowledge the trip by 3 hours prior. You are then obligated to sit short call for 6 hours starting at your original report.

I know but what matters now is what gets you off for Christmas this year.

If you declined HIT prior to the end of the last duty period where you were projected to go above 70:45 you could decline extra flying. You had 11 days off in 30 with 6 of them inviolate. Reserve patterns did have holidays off for a certain amount of lines, you had the "choice" to bid RSV or a Line if you could hold it. NWA used the rap system where you were on duty for 15 hours and off for 9, and on the last day of rsv you were not required to be available after 6 pm. 75 hours of pay guar.
