Work subcontracted out to a vendor will be of the type that cannot be manufactured or repaired in-house by existing skills/equipment or facilities of the Company. 19 ..... 20 (I) Due to lack of facilities, the Company may subcontract the major overhaul of aircraft engines during the life of this Agreement. 21 JA 195-96. The IAM notes that neither HMV nor other maintenance work on aircraft airframes is mentioned in the list of subcontracting exceptions. The parties agree that HMV work is not the type of work that customarily has been contracted out.
