RSV is "scheduled" mostly 5 on two off and 6 on two off. The dirty little secret is that the scheduling department can actually move your days off with no advanced notice. To them, it isn't "Junior Manning"... so there is no premium pay for working your days off (this applies to reserves only).
It's a terrible policy, but it's due to the extremely poor contract. They don't do it all the time, but it does happen. |

Keep in mind, that's a junior reserve schedule. They do improve, although 117 has cost a lot of guys days off and general efficiency.
That said, even a junior reserve schedule like that is far better than some 135 outfits (can you say 13 days off a quarter?) or a freight feeder gig. |

Thanks for the info...

If u have 6 days on you don't want to waste a GDO after day 6 cause they can't go into the 7th so it's a given Other than that it does seem like a lot of movement . I'm currently flying 100hrs and getting paid about 120hrs in credit , getting my time in I can't complain . |
GoJet updates
How in the world are you doing that?????^^^^^
|
When or how do you specify where the GDO days get placed?
