I am starting my first month of reserve and have a few questions. How do they determine who they call first on the bucket list? I have looked at the contract, but I might as well be reading Russian. I have heard people talking about being able to guess with pretty good accuaracy whether they will be called or not. Any advice about the system would be great. Thanks
Nope, that can't do that. It's in the contract. Unless there is nobody that can take the whole trip.

I am one of the more senior long call captains and sitting reserve is no picnic. I get a lot of 3 and mostly 4 day trips and I usually get extended. Some months I fly more and others less but only once have I exceeded 75 hours.

Are you kidding me? WHATEVER!
Can we at least get the terms correct? I realize that I'm splitting hairs here, but a Reserve pilot does not get extended, a line holder does.
A Reserve pilot gets an additional assignment, thats just part of being on reserve, it sucks, I'm there with you, but it is what we chose to do for the type rating and pay increase.
Plain and simple, just use the correct term.

When I get called in for a round trip, pack for two days, and after one leg, scheduling turns my round trip into a 4-day, what's that called?
