My best answer without looking it up is when you're within 1:59 of the ALV for your category, you can call scheduling and get released. They can't send you over ALV unless you put in a YS. 2 hours is the min day guarantee, so if you're within 2 hours of ALV, you can call and get released for the month.

I would call though, not just fall off the grid :D

I know I've already said it twice, but make sure you're looking at the ALV and NOT guarantee (70 hours).

Dumb and dumber?

I've never flown with a guy like that. My experience is that everyone is super cautious with ice, and rightly so.

George,

I suppose we do...... At least I don't have to fly with them!!:D (My FO's might but I don't have to!):eek:

Thanks Lein,

Looks like I'm a few hours short. Does that mean I'm stuck in the 1 day bucket, or can they assign me whatever they want?

Also, isn't it going to be hard for me to YS if I'm in the third bucket?

Hey, we get paid by the minute don't we!?!;) On a serious note, it just makes sense to err on the cautious side. Uhh Capt'n why didn't you deice when you could have....................?

They had to stop to change their shorts.

Sorry to bring this up again, but this contract extension rumor has serious legs. I just had a Capt ask me what I thought of the company's extension offer. When I said I had only heard rumors, he claimed it was discussed by the Lax LEC a few days ago. Anyone know of this being confirmed at a LAX LEC event? He stated the company offered a sizable pay increase but asked for more big rjs. The sad thing was he then tried to convince me it was a good offer! There are guys out there who will sell out the bottom half...beware.
