Efficient Use of Crew

[ILS8L]

I was looking at the CJ200 Cpt reserve list and saw a 4 day trip assigned to a guy with a 67:44 hour layover. Really! Get to ORD on Saturday at 19:23, leave on Tuesday (deadhead) at 16:07.

60 hours of ready reserve cool. if they need you, they know where you will be.

Not required to answer your phone on an overnight... Don't be stupid

 

[Jet_Dreamer]

answer your phone or not. they know where you are and they will try.

 

[LazyLightnin']

Check back in a couple of hours. That guy will never make it to that overnight.

 

[COOPERVANE]

None of us will.

 

[probablecause]

I think he was told that trip was to cover Express Jet flying because they are short. Go figure right? What about us that are short on crews out of ATL?????

I won't be answering. I'll keep y'all in the loop. Crew has already been briefed on the contract.

Wait, we have 145/200 dual qual now? Sweetness!

 

[Ted]

So do I thank 'em for flying ASA or XJT?


...."Thanks for flying United operated by Expressjet operated by Atlantic Southeast"

Nice! paid vacation.

You call this a paid vacation at per diem rates?

 

[Ted]

Well, the 67 hour overnight is being interrupted by a GSP turn today. Notification was via ACARS and was legal. Interesting stuff, as we have 5 pax to GSP, and 4 on the return. Also interesting as they have assigned it on an aircraft that is currently in the hanger with a flaps fail. They already cancelled one flight today due to flap on that bird. We shall see....

+3.75/day, nice hotel downtown, free breakfast....you bet! The fam would come along too. Heck, 3 nights stay in a nice downtown hotel with free transport? Per diem and pay would be a bonus.

Come on Ted. What is next? This is like a soap opera.

 

[AV8700]

Or just head home. No requirement to stay at the hotel, you don't even have to tell them where you will be, just not at the hotel. Still get the min day
