The problem is WE (the NC, all the ALPA lawyers, and the 4,000+ pilots who should have read the contract prior to voting) missed the error in the CBA. The CBA redefined ACH (Actual Credit Hours) to capture 8, it did not redefine Trip Guarantee (Section 4.F.). It is spelled in black and white in the contract. Trip Guarantee and Actual Credit Hours are defined explicitly.
THERE IS NO WAY WE WIN THIS GRIEVANCE.
