It used to be they just weren't correcting the rides on company airplanes but they seemed to have fixed it. Unfortunately, deadheading is supposed to be scheduled, period.

They used to correct the DH time if it went over scheduled. That was back when the average longevity of a scheduler was better than 18 minutes. Now they are like a bunch of computers and have no clue how to think outside the box. Nor do they care.

Actually, the software used to read you as an assigned crew member and credit you the block or better on our flights. The contract always said scheduled and that is why you would be denied the credit of a ground stop while Dh on a mainline flight. The software was enhanced to reflect the contract language shortly after the signing of contract '07.

No, it is not. And they can have YUL. That overnight sucks.

Section 8. No MOUs.

8. DEADHEADING
A. Pay
1. A pilot who deadheads to or from one point to another will
receive one-hundred percent (100%) of the applicable flight
pay hours for the scheduled flight time of such deadhead.

Lol. And how many years have you been at this company? I'm not even sure if that was in Contract 98, when we were paid deadhead based on EMB-120 scheduled block times, but if you insist...

We may be getting the 4 Air Mekong CRJ 900's. Not completely sure, but that's the rumor.

Anyone still hear the rumor of possible 700's in IAD. Also anyone know how many reserve lines for ATL 200 FO this month?
