FDX 1 in 7 ready, go
Any reserve experts? Crew scheds called 3 hours into reserve day and said 1 n 7 right now back on tomorrow this time. Is it any 24 hr period or a full reserve day you should have off.

24-in-7
"1 n 7", as the [old] rules say you have to have 24 consecutive hours free from duty and the opportunity for duty should the occasion arise - within every 7 days. Therefore, that rule does not provide for a full calendar day off... although that would provide for more rest.
The new FAR 117 rules (pax carriers) are even more specific and restrictive (30 in every 168 hours), and hopefully - one day - it will apply to the cargo carriers as well... as it should. Sorry about that...

Anybody else remember the "good old days" when you were on reserve for 24 hours and the "1 in 7" was look back. i.e., if they didn't use you, you had it? Pre cell phone days with a stupid beeper always on you and 15 minutes to call CRS when the thing went off in the grocery store, movie, driving down the road. If memory serves me, it took the FAA to fix that heinous reserve system. Things can always be improved but wow, we were really at the end of the whip back then.
