Sorry, but Whitlow was instituted to avoid the very look-back scenario you are espousing as legal. That's not to say Delta hasn't been getting away with this for years, but at NWA we didn't let them.
Gotta side with Super on this one.
If you are called to an international trip, they can do precisely that. Whitlow only applies to domestic operations. US ER guys on reserve can't be called to domestic trips without the 12 hour look back. International trips, though, are another matter.
