Worst case they only pay what they should have paid, best case they pocket it. We can't depend on individual pilots being complete CBA experts and catching everything, or even knowing when to flag everything. Especially when sometimes a cascade of pay protections is missed because one pilot upstream wasn't a CBA expert and didn't know something should be flagged. Some things should be 100% automatically reviewed. If it costs us 0.05% dues money to properly do it, so be it.
Exactly this. Follow the money. The PWA needs a provision to dissuade company mistakes. If we made it 600% pay for errors caught by the pilot/union, they would be highly motivated to do it right the first time.
