The 81 and change is the ALV plus 5.

Option 1 is to take time from your bank and add it to your pay for the current month.

The limit you can go up to for a month using bank withdrawals is ALV + 5 or 82 hours (whichever is less).

Default Sea Lawyers ?

Guys,

Anyone help a brother out ? I was injured on the job a few months ago. A couple of surgeries and lengthy rehab placed me in LTD.

I always understood that my LTD benefits were offset by any weekly Workmen's Comp payments I received.

I received a one-time payment for an awarded permanent partial disability, and now DAL says I have to pay that back to them as an additional offset to the LTD plan.

Not whining too much, but it seems to me that payment for an OJI permanent disability should not be subject to recapture by the LTD plan. In my case, it was several thousand dollars.

I can't find anything in the PWA that addresses this, and all the Dalpa types are tied up in the MEC meeting. Any help would be appreciated.

Regards to all.....

Correct, except you CAN do it on golden days.
Golden days are X days except that they are "inviolable" by crew scheduling. (No reroute into them or inverse assignments, etc.)
A pilot can violate his own golden day. (Green slip, yellow slip, etc.)
Golden X days also lose their golden status if you move them via PCS.

You won't find that in the PWA. It will be in the plan documents.

Wild guess --> its going to depend on who paid you and how that payment was characterized.

That's way beyond this forum though. You need to call Karen Brown at DALPA.

I dont think voluntarily violated Golden Days get paid back.
