  • Ready Reserve Room - The roach-infested ready reserve room will be located in D concourse. It will have a can of Raid for use that will be supplied to short call reserve pilots. The room will be equipped with mousetraps and bait. If a pilot desires to eat the bait, he will be expected to replace it ASAP but no later than the start of his next required rest period. Pilots are not required to provide a cell phone number, but must purchase a Rosetta Stone language training course for Atlanta-English to be able to comprehend Hartsfield-Jackson PA announcements.

yeah!

Copidat!!!
 
Thats great... The ready reserve room will have A competer and A phone. Hope 2 people don't need either one at any point. And no TV? WFT?
 
36 month contract (Sch. section done for over 2 years) - 3 or 4 months to implement and we have a 2.5 year contract!
 
I'm willing to bet nobody will ever use the ready reserve room, but will just hang out on C, where there are multiple pnones, computers, vending machines, popcorn and a TV. What a waste of time to even bother.
 
And what's up with the reserve rules that do not give reserves any min day or duty rig credits?!?!?! This amounts to a large paycut for reserves, when you couple it with the loss of premium! A reserve line is, and will always be, only worth 75 hrs now. I can see not counting every reserve day as 3.75 hrs, but why can't a reserve get min day credit if he/she is called out to fly 1.5 hrs in a day, or get the duty rigs???? That is rediculous to only apply the credits once you go over 75 ---- which you NEVER WILL! I guess this contract was zero net gain!
 
And When The Eff Are They Going To Change The Hotels?!?!?!??!?!?!?
 
Could have expected that from you Medeco. So I'm not allowed to voice any opinions or concerns on this message board without a snide remark from you....and yes, I'll take some Roquefort.
 
Section 3 – Compensation
2. Reserve Pilot
A reserve pilot will be paid and credited the greater of paragraphs 2.a. or 2.b.,below. A reserve pilot will be paid and credited, at the applicable rate of pay set forthin paragraph A., above, on a daily basis, the greater of the following:
(1) Flight pay hours calculated on a leg-by-leg basis, including any
additional pay credits set forth in paragraphs G.1, G.2., G.3., G.5. andG.7., below; or
(2) Duty Hour Credit
One (1) minute of credit for each two (2) minutes of duty time calculatedfor each duty period up to twelve (12) hours of duty, and then (1) minute of credit for each one (1) minute of duty time after twelve (12) hours ofduty. This provision applies to the pilots duty as defined in Section 2,based on the originally scheduled trip including, but not limited to CDO’sand BOTC’s. However, such provision does not apply to time spent intraining (not including OE); or(3) Minimum Day Credit

A reserve pilot will be paid and credited the greater of paragraphs (3)(a)
or (3)(b) below.(a) Three (3) hours and forty-five (45) minutes of credit for eachcalendar day of duty and/or calendar day away from domicile. Thisprovision will not apply to time spent in training (not including OE)and CDOs; or(b) Four (4) hours of credit for each ready reserve assignment.
If a reserve pilot flies more than seventy-five (75) hours of block time in a
month he will receive credit for such block time plus three (3) hours and forty-five (45) minutes of credit for each reserve day(s) for which he did not receive a flight assignment in the month.

The reserve day credit is the only credit that is affected by flown block.
Reserves are paid min day and duty rig credit.​
 
Ok, thanks for clarifying that. That is not how it was explained in a crew room pow-wow. The way I read it, since it is block hours flown, and not total credits that apply to the 75 hour rule, I still don't think any reserve will get over 75 hrs pay in a month.

Ps. What applies this month (Jan) The new contract rules or premium pay?

um, you're wrong
 
OK, thanks, I see that, see above. That is how a certain Chief Pilot was explaining it. But, the credits don't apply to the 75 hrs in order to get credit for reserve days that you were not used.

Correct, credits do not apply for the look back, but you could still possibly credit over 75 hrs, without flying over 75 hrs. Do I think it will happen? Not really.
 
I read the title of this thread anf thought it said
