Division (d) Maximum daily FDP for acclimatised crew members with the use of extensions without in-flight rest.F1

The maximum daily FDP may be extended by up to 1 hour not more than twice in any 7 consecutive days. In that case:

1. (i)

   the minimum pre-flight and post-flight rest periods shall be increased by 2 hours; or

2. (ii)

   the post-flight rest period shall be increased by 4 hours.

When extensions are used for consecutive FDPs, the additional pre- and post-flight rest between the two extended FDPs required under subparagraph 1 shall be provided consecutively.

The use of the extension shall be planned in advance, and shall be limited to a maximum of:

1. (i)

   5 sectors when the WOCL is not encroached; or

2. (ii)

   4 sectors, when the WOCL is encroached by 2 hours or less; or

3. (iii)

   2 sectors, when the WOCL is encroached by more than 2 hours.

Extension of the maximum basic daily FDP without in-flight rest shall not be combined with extensions due to in-flight rest or split duty in the same duty period.

Flight time specification schemes shall specify the limits for extensions of the maximum basic daily FDP in accordance with the certification specifications applicable to the type of operation, taking into account:

1. (i)

   the number of sectors flown; and

2. (ii)

   WOCL encroachment.
