Much like at SKW, I believe, it is more of a deterrent to Scheduling to build pairings with long duty-days (and thus higher Pilot pay).

It's not based upon a duty day but a duty period; a period can cover multiple days. A CDO/Stand-Up is one duty period as is a single day of flying. The 3:45 is a min guarantee per duty period/day, above that you are guaranteed at least half your duty period and above 12 hours you get 6 (12/2=6) hours plus 1:1 for every minute scheduled over 12 hours. This is all based upon a "scheduled period/day" and doesn't change if your day changes, that's why it's a guarantee; the only time this is not true is when you block more.

Example:

Scheduled to Fly:
13 hour duty period/day with 5 hours of block is credited at 7 hours of pay. (6+1=7)

Actual:
14:30 hour duty period/day with 8:30 hours of actual block pays 9:30. (8:30+1=9:30)

Rumor is that the president of asa is getting canned in the next couple of days for dragging this out so long.

Just curious........did you hear that floating around in the crew lounge? I heard a couple of pilots talking about it almost 2 weeks ago, but I didn't give it much thought at the time. Can you elaborate?

Wouldn't surprise me. JA knows what he's doing, he's a true "Spin" master!

i wonder if the next president will be mormon.... not saying that with any negative connotation at all, it just happens to be a big part of skywest culture and theres nothing wrong with that.
