No point in arguing over this, gents. It's gonna pass. I know it. You know it.

That isn't logic, it's corporate-speak. However it does seem like the interpretations are leaning towards the 30 minutes or less extension being "known/accepted" via release and the 31-120 min extension is a secondary acceptance. :-(

I get that, but ours is the full 120. Not ok with that... I'd be ok with the logic of them wording it "plan on accepting it with the information available at that time."

Lol. It seems we are treating this similar to the way a ****ty regional would treat it. Now if we have to talk to a chief pilot or answer to someone for not extending, then we would he treating it exactly the way a ****ty regional treats it. How do they get the FAA to sign off on this?

I kind of doubt it'll be that vindictive. The CP's 99% of the time just don't behave like that here.

I do believe we should treat the wording like it was written the way I outlined.

I'm sorry to hear that gj. I hope you can find some peace, and, inasmuch as the moment allows, some joy to carry you through.
