Past practice for doctors used to be ex-sanguination and using leeches. Do you defend that today? (gee I didnt even mean to draw a parallel to RAH).
You may not like it, but that is how arbitrators and judges rule.
DALPA changed the PWA when DAL wanted to sell OH. If the change was not made, RJET would have been off of the DCI list a long time ago, but frankly, we wanted nothing to do with OH or ASA and their perceived demands, so we changed the language. After all, what we have was the will of the pilot group at the time. Do not forget that. We just get to deal with it now. Em the facts.
