Quick question for the pay guru's out there, what is the line military leave adjustment under non cash pay all about on the new paycheck? Is this somehow going to be counted for tax purposes or something? what am I missing?

The MEC chair issue preceded the training department issue and was actually the trigger that led GA to investigate. Not sure what ALPA's involvement in personal tax situations should be since the law was crystal clear. Pilots who wanted the attempt a tax fraud should pay their own legal expenses. It should not come from my dues.
.
Were you on property when this took place?
Its telling you refer to the mec chairs behavior as an 'issue'......when he was engaged in tax fraud.
And in the next breath convict a group of pilots most of who were paying state taxes...and some of who were paying higher state tax rates than GA because thats what they understood was appropriate under RLA.
The fact dalpa failed to integrate training in the pwa was in large part responsible. And Delta was culpable in failing to begin state witholding when they transfered line pilots from 030 to 052 which altered status under rla.
Delta coughed up personal information to GA as a cooperative 'witness' on all instructors. My guess is they cut a deal to avoid penalty.
And as happens now...agreed to withold in future from ANY pilot who spends enough time in training to possibly trigger tax liability.

In any case I'd think the majority of SLI's live in states that have a tax anyway, and most of those are equal to or greater than GA and you can (I think?) credit that against your own state's.
Do they pay the tax now though? Some say they pay 777 rates even to FO's who can't hold it to try and sweeten the pot. The tax issue is simply beyond their control. I can't see them paying it for some and not others. A free hotel and/or positive space with commutable skeds would get them all the applicants they could handle anyway.

I had the same issue with mine and it is a setting that was turned on. Tap on the battery icon in the task bar, then power and sleep settings. There is a slide bar that says "Save me power when my device knows I'm away". Turn that off and it won't power all the down unless it's been like 4 hours instead of 10 minutes
Thanks....I would have went for years without looking for a setting to fix it.
