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.
Cappy, you eventually got around to the correct point, however past practice has nothing to do with it. The problem was that the pairing was 1 minute illegal, now it's not - problem solved. The schedule is now exactly how we voted for it to be.
That being said, anybody want to bet the departure time posted at the gate will still be the original time?
