True. But I have seen trips, rarely, that have been credited favorably wrong and to my knowledge have been paid what they were advertised as. Sometimes you pick something up based on the companies goof up expecting them to own their mistake.

50% pay rate increase. Duty rig and trip rig increase. Average duty period credit increase.

Beware X/Y list users
 
Beware X/Y list users.
The X/Y Master List is potentially inaccurate.

If a pilot flew an X/Y list trip in June with inaccurate credit due to the change in long layover language increasing the trigger for the additional duty period from 22 hours to 24 hours that pilot might be wrongly placed lower on the Master List because of the inflated pay credit associated with that pairing.

15 hr 4 days are totally rad.

Maximum TAFB with 15hr credit is 52:30, so start 10pm day one, end 2:30am day 4, really more of a long 2 day.....

I'd say more of a short 3-day, but we're beating a dead horse.

For a commuter those can work out ok with the late start and early finish. Sure, you need to work on 20 calendar days to credit 75 hrs, but you shouldn't ever lose a day off to commuting. It wouldn't be the worst thing ever, especially if you get the occasional higher-credit trip.

I'd much prefer to do that than sit short-call as a commuter.

That's funny, because working 20 calendar days per month sounds exactly like the worst thing ever to me. (Next to RSV)

Good thing those 15 hour 4 days are the exception not the rule. Personally my June line was built with 84 hours and 15 days off.
