I guess I'm not the sharpest tack in the barn, but 26.J.2.a says, The period beginning at scheduled showtime of a pilot’s inbound jumpseat and ending 30 minutes after the scheduled termination of his first duty period must be less than 13:30. So if you exceed the 13:30 that puts you in violation of the CBA. Doesn't that mean the Fleet Commander can remove you from a trip to keep you "legal" per the CBA since you have chosen not to maintain your own legality?
Not trying to be a Fleet Commander side-kick here. Just trying to understand how you can book an inbound J/S when headed out on a 14 hour trip after the J/S when this section of the CBA specifically prohibits it.
Please splain this to me.
