Let the quabling begin. Cheers, V C-2 HELICOPTER AIRCREW FLIGHT & FLIGHT DUTY TIMES a) In all cases, Carrier is required to adhere to the applicable Aviation Regulations. In the absence of Aviation Regulations that set a more stringent standard, Carrier must apply the following limitations: Q Personnel shall have a period of relief prior to reporting for Extended Work Periods.

Q For Extended Work Periods in excess of twenty-one (21) days, the period of relief prior to reporting for flight duty shall consist of at least one (1) day off for every two (2) days that the Extended Work Period is scheduled to last (i.e. fourteen (14) days off are required prior to reporting for a twenty-eight (28) day assignment). Q Assignments shall not exceed forty-two (42) consecutive days since the last documented time off (Note: Twenty-one (21) days off would be required prior to a forty-two (42) day Extended Work Period).
