Cap 371 (split Duty)
This question is for those of you having an understanding of CAP 371.
Consider the following scenario as listed below:-
A crew reported for duty at 2030Z; after a series of flights the aircraft has a mechanical problem after arriving in Miami Florida at 0400Z. Maintenance has advised the captain that the aircraft will be serviceable for a departure at 1030Z; crew will return to the airport at 0930Z.
Is it legal for the crew in the above situation to use split duty to return the aircraft to Tampa Florida?
