The bypass option is only available when you have the same exact RAP start time as someone else. I rarely see two people with the same exact RAP start time on the 190, they usually stagger it by at least 30 minutes... maybe it happens on the airbus?

I do like the title of that section:
-Short call reserve pairing assignment pass for next day assignments-
Well, if it's for next day assignments, why wouldn't a long call rsv get it?
Company already admitting they won't have long call reserves.
Now that section WILL come in handy before the DRO is complete, with opentime, to be assigned to only SCR ( because the 2 long call rsv's are busy).
Awarded in seniority order with pilots that have equal number of reserve days OR after the DRO with the same RAP ( not likely, like you mentioned)

One thing that we should consider is that if the TA fails, some of these work rules will absolutely be modified. It is not the case that everything improves, no matter what. Pay rates will likely go up, but there may be a loss in some of the work rules sections.
Just food for thought.

Think like a winner and you will win. Think like a defeatist, establishment, regional mentality, low rent pilot, and you will get exactly what you deserve.
We need to start winning, not just continuing to wave the white flag because people like you tell us we can't win.

Good write up. Don't forget that when CS calls you the clock starts. No more positive contact required. If you cannot get ahold of them you must assume you will report. For dual bases this could be iffy.
The reserve rules are basically a wash from our current system. Some gains, some give backs.

The wording on this contract is horrible and dangerous.
Prove me wrong apologists and defeatists.

I am trying to figure out (in this new TA) what is more beneficial for a guy who lives in base and bids reserve in order to not work very much. Should he bid LCR or SCR? SCR nets you an extra day off, but it's hard to say which guy will be used more. Any thoughts?

Lcr will be used a ton I bet.
