New contract language is not added unless someone wants to try something different.

Under the current CBA, a pilot ON RESERVE can not be assigned a trip that extends more than two hours into their day off - Base Hotel Standby or not. I'll take my own personal, first-hand experience on that over someone else's opinion. When the company tried that on me, I stood up for myself, defended the contract, and they backed down quicker than ALPA could answer the DART. With this new addition, the company will feel emboldened to press-to-test that again.

Now, I am telling you all that having the words "assigned" and "base hotel standby" combined with the current, stand alone operational extension language, all together in a single, additional paragraph in this TA is a really freaking bad idea.

But hell, don't take my word for it. Go ahead and vote 'yes" and find out for yourself.
