For example - depart MEM at 0330 and fly to BOS. Arrive BOS at 0630L, then depart BOS at 0705 and fly to EWR, arriving at 0800.

The trip as built is legal under the contract for duty in the critical period, but everything must go exactly right. Try turning through BOS during the morning push in 35 minutes, or getting into EWR without any delays during the Continental morning launch. Ain't gonna happen, and thus the SIG disputes the pairing as unrealistic.

Got this one off Reserve ... Gate hold in Boston for 3.5 plus hours ... I am grateful for the efforts and wisdom of our SIG ... Note: We were taking an empty plane from Bos-EWR ...

Speaking of DPs....not too long ago, the DP trips had "DISP" next to them. Who put them there? When can we get that back?

According to the contract (listed under the automation appendix), it was supposed to be implemented by Oct 07.

This was brought up before because I thought the same thing. In the final writing, it was left out of section 25.
