So you just request where they go back into your schedule (but it's ultimately up to skeds) just like any rebuild request associated with vacation/reserve issues?

From memory here, so someone may correct me if the 2015 CBA changed it, but they have to leave the leftover R days in place and add any back in that are needed either in a new block or attached to a leftover. In other words, if you had a week of reserve in week 1, then had the rest of Reserve in weeks 3 and 4 which your vacation killed all but 2 days that were removed due to buffer, they couldn’t reconstruct all days in week 2. They would have to leave week 1 alone, and add the two days reconstruction on either side of week 1, or the two days in week 3.
Sorry if that’s clear as mud. I know what I mean, but it’s hard to express the contorted process elegantly.

I got asked this question and couldn't find a definitive CBA reference.
Do we get paid for R-days knocked out by the 48-hour vacation buffers?
i.e.
A pilot has vacation that starts on Wed and goes for 7 days. He has 19 days of reserve starting Mon (two days before his vacation starts) and didn't waiver the buffers.
He can extend by 3 days, knocking out 10 R-days. His buffers on either end will knock out 4 more R-days. According to the contract, his vacation bank will be charged 10 x R-day value (4:46 this month), so about 47:60.
He's going to end up with 5 R-days left on his calendar. Assuming he sits reserve for those 5 days, is he going to get paid the full RLG for his reserve line?

What if you have both reserve and training in same month as vacation, and your reserve line falls on both your training and Vaca? Do you get paid for R days dropped by vaca, or since the training is on the line (and should drop the whole R line) does the whole R line drop out and you have to bid your entire RLG on the make up bid, instead of the difference between the RLG and remaining R days after vaca takes the R days out?
I looked at the CBA but couldn’t find Anything.
