Check, check my response above. I have had that happen before and I have gotten GS pay for the first duty period even when on a long call reserve day.

 

You are correct.
Green pay applies even on an on-call day if you get less than 12 hours notice.

 

That's my understanding, if you are LC and are awarded a GS then the first day is GS pay- whatever that may be for you, but if I'm not mistaken you're back to non GS pay on the rest of your on-call days just like if GS a trip that goes from X-days into on-call days.

23.u.something: A long call reserve pilot who is awarded a GS rotation with a report that is within 12 hours of the first attempted contact will receive single pay, no credit for the first duty period of the rotation (in addition to any other pay and credit for the bid period).

Green Slips (GS)
A reserve pilot may submit a GS to fly on either on-call or X-days. A reserve pilot who has flown a GS rotation(s) will receive:
• single pay and credit for the portion of such rotation(s) flown on his reserve on-call days that occurred before the pilot’s accumulated credit exceeded the ALV (applied against his reserve guarantee), and
• single pay, no credit (in addition to any other form of pay and credit for the bid period) for the portion of such rotation(s) that:
• interrupted his X-day(s), or
• occurred after his accumulated credit equaled the ALV,
Note: A reserve pilot who flies a GS rotation into an X-day(s) is entitled to additional time free
of duty under Section 23 S. 11.

 

I actually called the Detroit dudes and asked vs asking here. They said that it's supposed to be resolved at the November MEC meeting.

 

I have a long Pisa layover next month, and want to bring some friends. Does anyone know about rates and availability at our layover hotel?

 

Man, the longer our union reps drag this thing out, the worse it looks today, and will look in the future when it finally does come to light. FPL compensation should be a document that is readily available for reference to any card-carrying member, at the simple down loading click of a mouse. I think this pig is really going to stink when it does come to see the light of day....

 

Monthly bids are out. Even if they don't have an X over them, still click on them and many of the bids are there. Not all of them, though.

 

Chuck;
Yes, the reps need to push harder, and they may, but for now the FPL committee is constantly presenting to the MEC, and eventually there will be a resolution to it. I want it too, but these guys are doing the best they can when they only discuss the issue once a quarter.

 

The talking heads have skin in the game. The only time they talk up an "undervalued" stock is when they are underwater. Cramer included.

IMO, stocks are a waste these days. Sector stocks generally move with each other. However, there are certainly winners and losers with sectors. Personally, I'm a 3xETF investor. When you invest with etf's, you see market manipulation for what it is. When you invest in stocks, you are just manipulated.

 

Anyone know if the ALPA employees took paycuts when their employers did?[/QUOTE]
