What is the policy on deviating DH on the front end of a trip. I have a pattern with a DH has a 24 hour sit then operates 2 legs. Can I deviate DH on same day as operating the flights and stay home an extra day?

What are the rules?

If you're a lineholder, you just tell scheduling you're deviating. You're on your own getting there though - no positive space travel.

Reserves need permission from scheduling.

Permission is almost always granted to reserves though in my experience. I have never been turned down.

Absolutely. No question at all about that.

FWIW, I've heard the RAH issue is generating a lot of blow back. Coupled with the FPL issue, as well as the fNWA grievance issue, the DPA is probably seeing a spike in interest.

Nu,

Yep there has been a spike in interest in DPA, hope that it continues. The DPA members that I met in the ATL crew lounge were very honest trustworthy Delta Pilots.

In contrast, it seems that some ALPA Reps that were placed in the same area, on admitted flight pay loss were less than professional.

The time card shows the sick leave on there but doesn't assign it any hours, that is the closest I can figure......I still am not sure how to read the delta net, icrew time card though, my secret decoder ring never arrived in the mail.

Molon, I've always just called the pilot pay folks. They've been very accommodating and informative. There is that pilot pay guide thingy on Deltanet but just give them a call and they'll either explain it to you or fix it for you.
