Just as a counter to The Manager....
I'm as fair skinned as you get. So fair, in fact, that I could be used as "the visible human" if you held a bright light behind me. I don't tan, I burn, and that only takes a few minutes. With the exception of a few years, I've always lived where there sun shines most of the year.
I see the dermo once a year. He has to ask what I do. I get the once over, twice, with a bright light, followed by a black light. And this is in an area where they see all kinds of whacky sun related skin problems. My skin is fine, and I've never had anything sun related removed.
That said, everyone should see the dermo once a year.
I'd be more worried about getting the chute checked on a regular basis, most especially after 40.

Quick question. Is reroute pay as displayed on the time card single pay or double pay. So if it shows 7 hours, should I expect 7 additional hours of pay above all other pay and credit or 14? I'm thinking just 7. Thanks!

It is single, so you should expect an additional seven hours of pay.

Reserves don't get reroute pay do they? Even if they rerouted you into an off day?
I did get my PB day, but that is it right?

Got malignant melanoma a few years back and have a lovely 6 inch scar to remind me. I was very lucky that it did not spread but I dont play around in the sun anymore without covering up. I recommend SPF above 50 (my derm doc told me). I buy a 70 generic and a 100 made by Neutrogena. I also have stuff carved off me 2-4 times a year. Some of it has come back abnormal.
Whoever talked about checking out the chute, I have heard that advise by docs recxently also. Guess I should schedule the fun now.

A reserve pilot who is rerouted beyond the 23 L. time limitation and into either an X-day or a regular line day off due to a circumstance within the control of the Company is due reroute pay in addition to a payback day(s) for the violated X-day(s).
