What is the reserve callout? I heard 2 hours...but is that to push or to report?

Contract says its 2 hours to report time, then your normal 45 minutes. Company says it's 2 hours to push.

Is it possible to get ORD right out of training? If so how long would one expect to sit on reserve?


Any info is appreciated.

That's pretty clear...not. Everyone lives by the "2 hours to report" in the contract then, right? Or is the contract open to interpretation on this?

Does DCA seem pretty solid?

The contract is not open to interpretation. You get 2 hours from initial contact to report. No ifs, ands, or buts. I've been on reserve here since February. Never had them try to mess with the above rule.

Most junior ORD FO is 2/2/16. It's harder to tell the most junior lineholder if you're in a different base, but I would guess late 2014 to mid 2015 date of hire.

Pretty much everything in our CBA is open to "interpretation" depending on what particular catastrophe is currently in progress. Pilot "A" may gently remind scheduling of the CBA language and get an apology and the allotted time to show. Pilot "B" may do the same thing yet be threatened with disciplinary action if they refuse to capitulate. The IBT says "fly it and grieve it, ain't nothing we can do". It's kinda like dealing with a bipolar uncle, but ya get used to it. Most folks just roll with it. Ya don't want to rock the boat too much at what should hopefully be a short stop on your way to a major.

The FAQs are pretty explicit on this. I would throw that in their face as well.
