My suspicion is some people just don’t know to read the memos and company communications. Rainmaker has been accurately reflecting block pay for me. All it takes is one guy who didn’t read the memos to check fc view after not working for the last 3 weeks and see the forward motion time in there and think that’s when the pay starts (and have a crew scheduler who doesn’t know about pay say it’s right). They’ve said numerous times pay is based on block.

"Just a quick rundown on the new time clock. Today we pushed and sat for an hour without firing the engines. When we finally did start the engines and move to the runway and departed we got the message for wheel movement. Upon arriving in LGA I checked my schedule and it showed we departed an hour after we pushed. Called CS and they showed the same thing. Long story short I called the dispatcher and was handed off a few times and finally got it resolved for us. Come to find out they said that our pay was being started upon wheel movement and not when the door was shut and brakes released. This has been happening for the past week. This still has not reflected in rainmaker but they said they would fix it. So watch your time and pay especially in a delayed movement of the airplane. We are talking about a hour and half of pay not reflecting. You probably wouldn’t notice something like that sitting for 10 mins."

Here's the cut and paste from over there. I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing the same.

Yet another reason to fly the 200...

It doesn’t matter what your schedule says. What does rainmaker say? And yes they can be different.

There are tons of memos already out explaining this. Rainmaker will be based off of door close brake dropped. The way it's always been. Sounds like a scheduler who didn't know what they were talking about. If your rainmaker gets adjusted to forward movement then you have a pretty easy grievance to file.

The fact that they changed the time in the first place is ridiculous

Make you look at the actual duration not the scheduled duration in rainmaker. It's been working right, and looks like they fixed the cargo door still being not giving you an out time. And schedulers don't know anything about pay. Crew pay are the ones that are supposed to adjust your pay if needed.

Two days ago on a ferry I closed the door but forgot to drop the brake for almost 20 mins since we still had other things to do and we had no tow bar hooked up... Called DX three hours later and they fixed it... No hassle. May not always be this easy... But it does get fixed.

Per VP of Planning
No fleet growth for remainder of 2018. Holding steady at 102 crj 700 and 900's. 36 crj200's. Looks like its not us taking any more 700's
this year.

The way I read the email they are just trying to give us the status of the current flying. The email said they will will update us once they have clarity on the fleet plan for Q3 and Q4. The email doesn’t say anything about not growing later this year.
