It doesn't matter if they call you before you time out if they're asking you to work xyz additional leg. You can't do anything additional to what was on your schedule when your FDP started if it requires a 2-hour extension. If you're sitting reserve with one hour left on your FDP limit and scheduling calls you asking if you can do a DFW-SDF leg but need to accept an extension, you're being asked to do an illegal assignment. You shouldn't sit around tell the end of your FDP limit because once it's within 1.5 hours, it's almost impossible to legally work another flight.

In other words, once the FDP clock has started, you can't extend for added flying. You can only extend past your 117 table for delayed flights that were on your schedule......

Yes you cannot be extended just so they have u walk across to the next flight they just added to ur schedule. Example, U are operating a flight out of let's say Newark and u have 1hr of FDP left b4 u time out and suddenly ur airplane broke and takes 1.5 hrs to get it fix. That's wen scheduling will call to ASK you if u can take an extension for that UNFORSEEN circumstance. It is always up to u to accept it. If u feel ur getting too tired then NO, if u feel u can operate the flight safely then ok. Simple. That's what the UP TO 2 hr extension is for, unforseen circumstances.
U cant be sitting on reserve and they extend u for 2 more hrs to just sit there if that's wat the question was.

Here's a link

No that's not the question. All extensions have to be due to unforeseen operational circumstances. I'm not suggesting otherwise.

Systemized is saying that even if there's an unforeseen operational circumstance, you can't be extended if you've had flying added to your schedule after your initial report time for that FDP.

For example, let's say you were scheduled to fly 2 legs and when you get back from the second leg, scheduling assigns you a third leg. That third leg was scheduled to get back before the end of your Table B max, but then an unforeseen operational circumstance delays that third leg so that now it will end after your Table B max.

Systemized says that because the third leg was added to your schedule after your show time for that FDP, you cannot accept an extension. I'm asking him where he is seeing that in 117.

Im talking about if ur already on a scheduled flight and something happens, I was making an additional comment to the example I provided in my first post.

You are correct there. In ur example the added flight wasn't gonna go over ur table B max initially. So u started loading up to takeoff and the plane breaks, now it will go over ur Table B max.....they can call and ASK if u can take an extension due to that unforeseen circumstance.

It doesnt matter if the flight was an added flight, the fact that it was to be completed within Table B limits but unforseen happens while ur operating it, warrants a legal ASK for extension.

For example: the contract pay rates for Envoy is 25.84 (2015-2017) then 26.10 (2018). Envoy has an LOA that starts FO's at year 4 which is 39.78 (2015 - 2017).


ALPA is always looking for volunteers. I suggest you give it a try.
If you go directly to the Envoy Air website, their hourly rate for First Year FOs is $38. They have a bonus on top of that bringing the total first year compensation to $60k. It is just sad!

That is because of an LOA called FO Flex pay that starts New Hire FOs pay at Year 3 (37.90) rather than year 1(25.84). This LOA expires 2018. If not renewed pay will decrease to previously stated rates.

And MagNeg shouldn't be knocking APC for their accuracy in pay...cuz if u check out each regionals website for first year FO pay and ask those FO that are on first year pay u pretty much get the same answer as wat APC is showing (+/- some cents becuz APC rounds up). CommutAir is paying $36.54 and what does APC say? Republic is actually paying $40 (I asked, I know ppl there) and what is APC showing? The same thing MagNeg mentioned abt LOA with Envoy...APC mentions that too....so how is it not accurate? Industry standard is not $32.99. If so then whats the reason for my pal at republic getting $40 per hr?

APC might lag by 1 to 2 months but they update their stuff

[correction LOA starts New Hires at year 3 ($37.90), the pay rate for year 4 is correct.]

Same thing ur saying is the same thing APC says:

http://www.airlinepilotcentral.com/airlines/regional/envoy_air

Check it out.
It also says after 1 year of service FOs will go to year 4 pay. I will ask a friend of mine (that works at Envoy) to verify this....just to measure how accurate APC is.

And dont think im attacking you MagNeg, its just my allergies acting up.

The problem with APC and you just saying that pay is $38 is because it is artificially inflated due to an LOA. Year 1 pay rates are $25.84 per Envoy contract. The Negotiating Committee has access to current contracts and LOAs at all ALPA carriers and have verified first year pay contract rates.
