A pilot will not be rerouted or required to depart from the gate on a deadhead flight segment that is scheduled to block in more than one hour beyond such limit."
You are quoting extraneous info so please stop stating the obvious..your reference does not tie into the shortcall call start.....back on target, where is it written that a shortcall start is the start of a rap or fdp? That is what Alpa couldn’t find.
