Hi,
I dont know if anybody can help but here goes.
Where I work we have to report 1.5 hours before departure for our pre flight briefing and preparing the aircraft. Some of our days are very long and therefore we are short on hours which inevitably means we go into discretion.
However where we work we go on the PILOTS report time which is half hour after ours. This can mean sometimes when the commander is enforcing his/her crew into discretion by 2 hours it is really 2.5 hours which is not allowed.
Are airlines legally allowed to knock this half hour off our Flight Duty Period and put our report time at the pilots time?
Any help/ advice would be great.
Thanks
