Looking at http://www.airliners.net/aviation-fo....main/2442054/ , I guess the difference might be regional and subtle?

Anyone know the history with UA on this? Did they switch from one word to another? Or, maybe some aircraft are leased while others are owned? Or, the doors are actually different? The English says Pull in both cases.
The Spanish verb for "to pull" can be spelled either "jalar" or "halar", with resulting imperative conjugations "jale" and "hale" respectively.
