Looked at the PBS Gouge. Looks pretty good, need to spend some time with it.

Did find out you would only get an RLL if it followed an unconditional bid group (which I assume means you would be awarded anything that would put you within the window, before it would consider you for an RLL)

Nothing I could find about a minimum RLL award.

There no longer is a min RLL award.

This has all the answers you need, especially the PBS Gouge--page 132 specifically, "Reserve Line Construction Rules." It all depends on whether or not you have work days or off days at the end of the previous month. If you have a trip (or on call days if the previous month was also reserve) ending on the last day of the month, then you can "orphan" the days as you said, so long as by doing so you meet the "min days on" criteria.

If you do not, then you cannot do that. The Gouge explains it very well. There is also an Excel spreadsheet on the site, "Reserve Line Simulator" which will actually tell you if your desired reserve schedule is legal or not contractually.
Thanks! Great help.

Anyone know when/how often vacation move up bids are processed?

May bid packages are out. In it, they say vacation move-ups close on the 1st at 0800E and are posted on the 4th at 1800E every month.

You know about 'Vacation Slide' too, right?

Or are you trying to jump a whole month?

Where do you expense the cost of a flight physical?

In iCrew > Pay/Hours > Expenses, all I get are choices for Rotation and Training expenses.

Edit: K.1. Seems to imply the reimbursement is automatic after you submit your Med Cert to Flight Crew Records. I guess they know based on your age/equipment whether you need a 1-year versus 6-month renewal, and EKG required or not?

Reimbursed automatically when you submit your Cert. They pay you $2xx the first submission of the year and then $1XX on the second if you are required to have 2 first class physicals per year. It may take 2 pay cycles to see it show up as a negative amount in the deduction side of the pay statement...PFM.

Edit. It is a set amount whether it costs you more or less than the contract amount. If less, keep the change.
