Of course we know there is a great deal of looking the other way that makes any relationship function, but I think you were making a technical distinction, so, if we are getting all technical ... yes regulation can modify a PWA.

Contracts exist under the law. No contract is enforceable to the extent that it violates regulation. Regulation always supercedes a contract. In this case the regulation is more limiting than the contract and the contract triggers a response to the regulation.

Jump down to the last line of this article.

contract legal definition of contract. contract synonyms by the Free Online Law Dictionary.

Not the best explanation, but about as good as anyone is going to get this time of day
Pilots used to waive the duty time limits in the contract all the time. Usually when coming home from a international trip.

It's also exactly the same as any other long call assignment under 117. If you are required to answer the phone then your rest is broken and you must have 10 hours off before you report. In this case your required to make a schedule check. You then must have 10 hours free of duty. They can't require to do anything during that period or you require another 10 rest. Go back about 4 pages in the thread and read the reply from contract admin. Regarding this.

I see your point. The last-day-off post-1500 check breaks your "rest." Then you go back on for a minimum of 10 hours.

Those aft lavs look pretty tiny, though.

Looks good. I hope they keep the more comfortable Airbus seats as opposed to the miserable park benches installed in the 737s.

Unfortunately, those park benches seem to be what they're relying on to squeeze more seats into each airplane without giving up much leg room.

Oh to be a 26yr. old new hire pilot again!!

I have not seen four F/A's like that on the same airplane in about 20+ years!

I'm seriously thinking of bidding back to Domestic!

Let me look at those 717 trips again....oh...wait.
They probably thought, that guy reminds me of my Dad!
