I don't believe the company negotiated this without the intent to comply. And they said they're going to automate the process next summer... so then they WILL be complying (unless they built automation that doesn't do what it's supposed to and we should be able to check that...)

Batch sizes needed to change, they were too restrictive and caused at least some of the 23.M.7 heartache but did they need to go to unlimited? Probably not.

Also, did we get enough restriction in the use of 23.M.7 to justify the huge give on batch sizes? Not sure.

I'll be interested to see if this causes guys to pull their blanket green slips and we go back to the days of only putting in a green slip when you wanted to fly vs having one in always.
