Scenario:
A RES pilot has a YS in to fly on RES days.
He is on 30-hr rest (non layover.)
During that 30-hr rest he checks his schedule, sees a rotation that reports 3 hours after his rest ends. He acknowledges.
He was never notified.
Is this kosher? The SRH mentions YS's being proffers if less than 12 hours from first attempted contact -- but there was no attempted contact.

And fwiw, MiCrew is still not a legal* means of notification per the SRH.
*When we say “legal,” do we mean PWA compliant or FAR compliant?
Asfor YS…be careful what you have in there in terms of standing qualifiers and/or a blanket slip for the on call days. My opinion only, but I suggest only YS-ing specific rotations rather than entering parameters.

There is some truth and some bad info.
This was not a fishing expedition. As a reserve, anything placed on your schedule 9 hours prior to ending rest (x days or 30 hours) you are responsible for and will not be notified. Normally, this would allow them to put a trip on your schedule as early as 10 hours after starting long call vs the normal 12. HOWEVER, a "high yellow," which is a yellow without qualifiers, allows them to put a trip on your schedule that doesn't follow the normal reserve assignment restrictions.

If you YS a trip scheduling is not required to notify you. It’s on you to know what your slips are and self-notify and show up at report.

The SRH talks of greater that 12 hours from first attempted contact. But there was no attempted contact since I was on rest.

A yellow slip communicates your wishes. If you wish to fly a rotation that reports earlier than the company is otherwise allowed to task you, this is your mechanism to communicate that. That flexibility is definitely a plus as long as you understand how it works. I’m honestly not sure where that is written and understand it can surprise people. Perhaps a checkbox would be more intuitive [Allow early report YES/NO?], but there’s no way icrew will be reprogrammed and frankly I don’t want any more check boxes to fill or verify.
