They made their own bed with this crap, I say we let them sleep in it.
The difference is scheduled vs actual. Scheduled is not legal, but if you're on duty already then delayed its ok.
I agree with your statement, but there isnt much I can do about it. There is past practice with this issue, and in the past when dealing with an on/off duty issue around the midnight hour the company has remedied the issue by adjusting their flight schedule to accomodate the CBA restrictions. As long as all pilots schedules are CBA compliant there isnt much that can be done.
