Quick reserve question: I'm on vacation through tomorrow. The way I read the PWA, I'm not on the hook to check my schedule for possible duty on Sunday until after midnight, right? And they can't give me a trip without 12 hours rest until then, I'm on my kids spring break and don't want to have to deal with a possible trip until I get home tomorrow night.
Thanks all! |

Explain. The MEC is the elected body of the pilots, elected by the majority. I support the MEC. How is that hypocritical?
Read your post in bold then look in the mirror. |

Thanks all! Source: Reserves Required Formula and WSC (not quoted) I start reserve tomorrow. What do I have to do? Also the PWA says it in: 23.S.1.D.2.B.A :eek: that you don't have to check.The company can typically assign you duty reporting as early as 0500 on your first on-call day. If the assignment is a rotation that reports prior to 1200 or a short call period that begins prior to 1000, they must put that on your schedule NLT 1500 on your last non-fly day. You must check your schedule some time after 1500 and before 0200 the following morning, and acknowledge the assignment NLT 3 hours prior to reporting for a rotation and NLT 1 hour prior to beginning short call. Please note that the term “non-fly day” in this case does NOT include days of vacation, training, travel to/from training, or company business, or days in which you perform or are scheduled to perform flying for the company, are removed from your rotation for company convenience, or perform an SLI duty period. If your last non-fly day is a vacation day or one of the other exceptions listed above, you do not need to check your schedule. You simply go onto your 12-hour long call leash at 0001. And PWA 23.S.2.A.5 says: A reserve pilot will not be assigned a rotation that has a report earlier than 1200 (base time) if the non-fly day that preceded the on-call day was a vacation day.

For everyone who thinks we at Delta are anywhere near the top of this industry in ANY way, read the following document obtained from the DPA website. It is the welcome package sent to AirTran pilots from Southwest Airlines.

That's what I see. You cannot be assigned a trip prior to 1200 and you go on long call at 0001 coming off a vacation day.

I'll be the best airport salesman ever! http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1042/...413d46e332.jpg Hello there Mr. Frequent Flyer guy, can I interest you in this unbelievably awesome plastic thing you can use to buy stuff? I've got some credit problems myself so I can't have one, but you don't look very shifty to me so I'm sure you'll be OK. Hey wait, where you going? Did I ever tell you about the time I caddied for the Dalai Lama? Carl |

Thanks FTB! We're hanging with Mickey, Goofy and Donald so the info is very much appreciated. I'll happily fly a rotation later in the day but having some time to shift gears would be nice.
