The operating crew DHs from OAK to EWR and the notation at the bottom of the pairing "flt standards crew to operate oak-msp-ord-ewr."
I think the problem was that the three legs were IMBEDDED. The way flight management guys flew them, they were not. If you are flight management and want to fly a disputed pairing to see what it is like, then fly the whole disputed pairing.
