Long call can convert to short seven times.

Cannot comment about SkyWest, but if you have your ATP written complete, CTP is not required, and would be a waste of money (unless they just considered it part of your regular training). Get that ATP cert prior to 31 July 2016, and you won't need CTP.

If the written expires, it is expired and the CTP needs to be taken.

Glad you agree with me. Thanks for backing me up.

No traffic at 0400. Mx flights *usually* have some slop in the schedule since the airplane is typically not ready when you get there anyway.

Where are you based? It takes at least one, and usually 2 hands for our base every month.

Sadly, it's been the standard response for over 2 years now... getting real old!

I don't give a rats ass what the company says they're "Allowed." If the phone rings and it wakes me up, I am going to reset my rest. Operators are not allowed to disturb a pilot during his rest, and that's an FAR. The CBA can say what it wants, it can't supersede an FAR

Actually I believe that 117 allows that one call. I could be wrong, though...
