RAH contract question?
"Fatigue "isn't a tremendous issue" for the 2,000 pilots at Republic Airways Holdings Inc., which owns three commuter carriers, according to Wayne Heller, chief operating officer, adding that the airline's work rules are stricter than the FAA's. "If we have fatigue," he says, "it's due to unplanned circumstances" outside the company's control."
After seing this assinine staement, just what kind of trip rigs do you have in your contract and does one contract cover all the units?

I thought maximum sked duty was 14 hours, not 15...
And what kind of statement is that? "If we have fatigue, it's due to unplanned circumstances..." Hmmm...who actually plans to make their pilots "fatigued" anyway? Where did you find this? I'd like to read the article.

excess of fourteen (14) hours, including deadhead (except for a
deadhead on the last leg of a duty period), unless by consent of the
pilot, except that a CDO may be scheduled for up to fifteen (15)"
Not really a normal situation, but they can sked us up to 15.

Our contract (or lack of it) and our unions complete impotency to uphold the patheticly weak language is one of the main reason i will not be returning from furlough at RAH.
I am gladly using the furlough as a stress-free way out of my training agreement.

Be careful, that does not release you from your training contract, read your contract. It sucks, but if you refuse to return you're on the hook for the remainder of the training contract.

I know that my contract isn't perfect, but it at least it pays me for what I fly! And I WILL NOT take concessions to fly a bigger aircraft
