Sign Out. The end of your Ready shift. A Ready shift is considered a flight assignment. i.e. 11-1900. 1900 is the SO time (end of shift) on your HI3. So say you’re on S2 from 11-1900. You get called right at 11 for a quick turn. You finish back in DFW at 1700. You check your HI3, your original SO if 1900 is still on your schedule. You still have that flight assignment until 1900 on your HI3. Therefore, you are obligated to complete it. Unless you are realeased by CS. As Pedro said, if you were to do the turn and upon checking your HI3 after finishing the turn the SO time has. been removed, I’d say your obligations have been met by the contract and you’ve completed your assignments.

Alright good you read the part I was about to reference. Here is “My” rule on this vague situation. I land and check my hi3 if the SO is still there at the original time then I have to stay. If the SO is not there then I’m released. Does that make sense?
My HI3 is the company’s way of telling me what to do. If it’s there then I call if they have replaced me.

I’ve never noticed SO disappearing early either.

So, what are the actual rules on picking up open time while on reserve?
There's an open trip that I should be legal for (not dropping below 8 days, not touching any RSV days) as far as I can read sections 11/12, but I only get "reserve conflict" in DECS.

Are you trying to pickup via the automated system or are you trying to send an RF?

Do I need to wait until the RF period while on reserve?

1. You can't start before 10 on your first day.
2. You can't finish after 6 on your last day. (Only exceptions for these two is if you have an airport standby line that will guarantee you 10 hours of rest.)
3. Can't go below 8 days off.
4. OT picked up the day prior must be done before 8 am or after 5 pm or at anytime via reserve appropriation.
5. You can pick up carry over OT into the next month but rarely will that be an option and only before your next month schedule is assigned.

Yes. You have to wait for the 48 HR window to open and then the next time you can pick up OT is later when everything gets opened back up. Check quick trade will show you in the calendar.

I'll try again in a few days when the RF period opens. I've got a block of 5 days off I'm trying to fill.
