Try AirlineApps... that should fulfill 11 of your apps quota.

Unfortunately from what I have seen in the past you are officially on reserve beginning the 2nd which means you must adhere to you're reserve window. As far as you're report it is still 550 because you were pre-notified. You are now taggable for an easy out and back that day and if the 3rd is a soft day off you are also eligible to have that day moved and an overnight assigned (although highly unlikely.) Good luck and welcome to the world of reserve!!!

Gotcha. I was just looking through the contract and the part that I was unsure of was talking about two duty periods in one day and that the subsequent duty period must not start in domicile. I guess you are saying that the duty period actually starts that morning at 5:00am. I guess that makes sense, but I think it's a load of crap how before my actual awarded line as a line holder is over(the 2nd) I am actually on reserve. So I am a lineholder and a reservist at the same time. Nice!

Remember when you were a kid and you would be losing in a Chess game or something like that? You would make up a move that only you were allowed to do and if your friend pitched a fit, you would just grab your toys and go home. That is very similar to the way that this company works. They get to make up the rules as they go along.

So let me get this straight. If I roll in at 8:00am on the 2nd and I am not tagged with anything and I'm am released to go home, I basically go home and sit the rest of my window until 3:00pm. Then if I am called with something, I would be subject to a 9 hour call out? Could the company notify me when coming back into the gate that morning of a change to a SC window for the remainder of that day? Wouldn't they have to do that the night before?

Dude dont bother with that. Those application take forever to fill out. All you need to do is call, fax your resume, email the HR department at any airline. Any form of contact is considered "applying" according to the unemployment office. Even if you leave a message on the machine and they dont return your call. That is still accepted by the unemployment people. It should only take you a half hour. This is what I did and there was no problem.

Hope that helps for any of you.

Did you see how Comair will be operating some Delta Connection flights for Mesaba in April. DS put out a memo to the pilot group that this will be temporary and that it will not be any type of increase in our flying.

Ladies and Gentlemen, why would we be doing this. DS says the only changes will be some minor procedural changes for our crews.

What's next?
