They assign it at the beginning of a pairing, if it fits into your FDP on the last day, unfortunately it's legal. Just make sure your getting credit for the flying, and your ready reserve shift you do. If ready is assigned after a flight assignment you are credited for both.

Something has changed since I read the Regs a few months ago. What I read in the US Airways booklet is that your shift is over once FDP is over unless assigned additional flying before the end of that FDP. Tell me if I'm wrong but Ready Reserve is not a FDP.

This is legal provided it was added to the schedule prior to the brake being set and it does not exceed your FDP limit. If it is added after the brake is set, it is illegal since you are already in rest.

Let me ask you this. They can assign you ready reserve but not regular reserve?

That's an interesting question. My guess is no. Since regular reserve is not counted as FDP, once you end the flight duty period, you cannot be placed back into short call RAP until you have your 10 hour rest. Since ready reserve is part of the FDP, your FDP doesn't stop.

According to the definition though Ready Reserve is not a FDP. The way it's written is "with the intention of conducting a flight". Sitting at the airport on the couch watching Days Of Our Lives is not intention of conducting a flight, ferry or movement of an aircraft. This is vague.

Can I ask a favor? I'm trying to get my log books nice and tidy. Do any of you guys have a digital list of CR9 3 letter ID's that correlate to N numbers? Something you could copy and paste into a PM for me? I sure would appreciate it. I really don't want to call dispatch for this LOL! Reason I need them is I copy data strait from crew-web and usually only end up with "CYD" etc. instead of an N number. Mention publicly if you send a PM, so other's don't have to bother 
Thanks so much!
Thanks so much!

Brake is set. And though "airport reserve" or "ready reserve" is not considered a leg for the purposes of FDP, it counts under FDP limits. AR is not RAP it is FDP.
