The DOH policy listed in the non-rev Travel Guide that applies to ALL employees and is only found online on the company website? Or, the policy listed in Chapter 9 of the Flight Operations Manual, which is specifically titled "Flightdeck Jumpseat", and just so happens to be located in hard copy format in the cockpit shipset binder just outboard of his left leg?

"See DRS:JUMPSEAT, DRS:CABIN JUMPSEAT or the US Airways FOM for expanded guidance."
DRS = Direct Reference System which is where the gate agents can access and read a help file on a particular subject in the SHARES reservations computer system that US Airways uses.
