RideandDrive said:The target for the August bid is 82 hours. Reserve is running longer than expected. Also they make the 190 guys sit airport standby for 6 hours with no pay and no per diem. The scheduling guide says this shall be done for irregular ops, but it seems to have become standard practice. The 320 fleet does not do this duty.
You're right about the per diem. Since you're not traveling away from base, you don' get any.
Correct me if I'm wrong but only the folks on reserve do airport standby, so your reserve guarrantee is what you're getting paid.
I don't know how much it happens, but 320 guys do do airport standby from time to time. (Hehe, I said do do.)
