CBA's are ratified via NMB collective bargaining. They're legally binding on both parties and provide for compensation penalties as well grievance resolution. But they won't be found in CFR or subject to FAA LOIs. FARs drive manual and SMS compliance. Max & min limitations in every corner, as you well know. I see this more like the part in Raiders of the Lost Ark where they put a stick in the ground in the map room. Only when Jones deciphers its length as specified in the sand hieroglyphics correctly does the sunlight point accurately to the Well of Souls. CA is run like ancient Egypt. (Insert laugh track)
