Edit: Last leg is deadhead and scheduled block in is 2359. Am I recalling correct that debrief time for a back end deadhead is 0 minutes?

Release is still 30 minutes after block in.

Had that happen to me too, only an early sign in. Scheduling said they can’t remove it since it’s a training trip. ACE report filed.

Call the duty pilot and ask to speak to the scheduling rep at the OCC. Training has zero to do with trip assignments.

I bid reserve and it popped up on my schedule 4 days in advance so it had to be OE/training that assigned it. It certainly wasn’t a regular reserve callout. Hopefully ACE sorts it out, but duty pilot isn’t a bad idea if it happens again. Definitely seemed a PWA violation.

Spoke to duty pilot and scheduling and got nowhere. They insist it’s fine through 0200. Training scheduling obviously not gonna help on a weekend.

Will fire up the ACE app(again.)

Only case that I can think of that this is kosher would be if this is OE, in which case they own you no matter what you bid.

Call back and speak with a different scheduler, then a different supervisor. Also, I would FCR that when it’s all done, and give the day/time of Duty Pilot and scheduler for accountability. They need formal correction.

Also, calling with the PWA reference helps, but is no guarantee that will change their mind.
