So, if the FAA says "Don't Go" and the airline says, "Go" - what do you do? Or have I missed something?

Is your question based on the ALPA or FAA document? ALPA is a union which represents many pilots employed by various US air carriers. The first posting contained in this thread is their interpretation of the notice issued by the FAA. The actual notice issued by the FAA is contained within this thread too. Regardless if a pilot is a member of ALPA, APA, TEAMSTERS, etc. they are all bound by the regulations, special notices, and advisories as may be issued or set fourth by the FAA. It should be noted that ALPA has the welfare of their members at heart.
