The US is an ICAO contracting entity.

Your Commercial/Instrument is ICAO, your ATP is/will be ICAO so long as you meet the ICAO requirments at the time of the examination. If you don't, there will be an endorsement on your certificate that says: “HOLDER DOES NOT MEET THE PILOT-IN-COMMAND AERONAUTICAL EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS OF ICAO”

Certificates like sport pilot and recreational pilot are not ICAO since there is no ICAO equivalent.

If you have an ATP, you must also get that English Proficient endorsement in order to stay compliant.

So, to answer your question, yes you are ICAO. That is NOT however JAA. Anyone that requires a JAA certificate, there is a substantial conversion to go from FAA to JAA.

Hey guys, I have a reserve line for July and my schedule consists of every reserve day being from 1900-2400. Is that a highspeed reserve line or ready reserve or what?

With 24hr callout you could essentially be anywhere, if you are called you have 24hrs before whatever trip they assigned you to get back to base.

With Time Available, you are on duty or contactable during your regularly scheduled duty time for your trip. So if you were supposed to fly 4 hrs you are Time Available for that time and at the mercy of the schedulers.

I would take 24hr callout if you live out of base, but on the other hand if you had a short trip pulled Time Available may be more beneficial.

For time available too, your original duty times are just your CONTACT times, they can fly you whenver they want during the days of the trip that got pulled, but you have to be finished at the latest 3 hrs after the time you were supposed to be off duty the last day of the trip....Usually if there's stuff in opentime take the time available otherwise they'll most likely assign you the opentime if you take the 24hr callout, if no opentime take the time available unless you live outta base, then the 24hr callout is a no brainer

You can trade a trip for something in open time or trade trips with a fellow pilot via the trip trade form on CrewTrac. You may also request to drop a trip but scheduling won't look at a drop request until 48hrs before hand.
