Feeling Mislead
Last week after the Hub turn meeting I went from a hard line "NO" to "on the fence" based on the extra-terratorial flying as explained by the member of the negotiating comittee. After rereading the LOA I feel that I was lied to. The LOA only mentions the RLA as it relates to work rules (the CBA) in the United States and furthermore stipulates that the pilot will not be governed by the laws of the country where the FDA is located.
I am no genius, but I fail to see how you could even begin to stretch this wording into "covering all extraterritorial flying". Am I missing something? Or did I get fed a line of BS?
Oh well, back to the hard line "no", if only I could vote......
