(The following is something I was told by the Union, and God knows money isn't real until its in my bank account) The Company wants it to be unpaid unless I perform duties in the Training center (teach recurrent or indoc etc..) But the Union said they will cover my min guarantee for the 2 months if the company doesn't have me work. (not holding my breath) The moral of the story is......people without an ATP and an unrestricted type in the a/c WILL be pulled off line until they do. No Grandfathering or anything. So on August 1st 2013 I will no longer be "qualified" on an airplane I've been flying for almost 2 years, just because of this regulation.

I agree! I think its great! I'm the first person to back it up! I was just pointing out that its funny that one day I can work and the next day I can't. Just let the record show that I am 100% in favor of this reg.

There was a time when they raised the drinking age to 21. One day, a 20 year old could be out at happy hour, the next day, he was unable to. You should feel fortunate that you were able to build your time through a way that will soon become illegal. It is what it is. At least you're not the guy that will have 11 months until he becomes of age after the rule takes effect.
