p.s. that's un-augmented of course.
I don't believe that is correct...however I could be wrong. Our scheduling committee is doing a good job with their updates. Expect more and more detailed examples in the upcoming weeks. As it is a lot of this message board chatter approaches speculation.

There is not a domestic 8 hr restriction in our contract.

Well, my contract shows from section 12-Hours of Service:
"12 E 1 An International category pilot will not be scheduled for block time in excess of eight hours in a trans-oceanic duty period."

You guys are correct of course. Our contract prevents being "scheduled" for greater than 8 hrs flying. That would also prevent the company from using the 9 hour non augment in far 117. So I still see it as a downgrade.

Your reference is for international category pilots.

I believe his point is that there is no 8 hr limit on domestic operations. Hence 9 hrs could be used domestically without any contractual relief necessary.

Go back and read your original post. You made no mention of international or domestic.

Anybody else who banks with DCCU starting to have customer service issues? Just in the last few months I'm noticing some issues.

I'm less and less impressed with DCCU over time. I've had a great history with them, meaning I've held up my end of the deal. They've made a huge mistake with a wire transfer, despite very specific instructions (deposited the money into the wrong account). When I needed them for a mortgage, they couldn't help in my state. I get much better service at a local bank, although they too have made the occasional error.
