A reserve is released to rest for the remainder of the day upon completing a CD. So no, you are not on duty after returning to domicile tomorrow (Monday).

If they give you something tomorrow, ask for a CP. Have a CP listen to the tape and if they insist you take additional flying, do what you must and grieve it. Should be good for an extra day off.
Thanks for all the info everyone. It is a CD and montu thanks as well. The "C" classification was explained also. Goodnight..have an early report tomor...today...

I only see one (1) available now. Shouldn't some of the downgrades be showing up?

Hold on tight guys! 53,000 more jobs lost at Citigroup. Just my own opinion, but I believe that within the next 6 to 10 months the airline industry is going to get blindsided by financial struggles like we've never experienced before. Flying is a luxury just as objects at all of the retailers are. People simply won't be able to afford it when they don't have a job.

Kind of makes it feel like the whole world is caving in... doesn't it?

MESA stock is down to $0.18 today. That's 25% down for the day. Anyone knows what's going on?

My guess is with Citi laying off 50,000+ people, the whole stock market is losing and not just Mesa. But I'm too lazy to look
