Tim-
We're talking about Section 23.S.2.a.1 --
A reserve pilot will not be assigned a rotation that will cause his credit to exceed the ALV.
If they change that to ALV + 15 then they can assign a reserve a 15 hour trip if he is one minute short of the ALV. That is a big change. It will reduce staffing significantly.
