the management here has interpreted the regulation that deals with the logging of time as an augmenting crewmember to also apply towards the FTL's (ie. time spent in the bunk cannot count towards total time for the purposes of attaining a license). Never mind that when they tried this before, the GCAA intervened.
Surely it is up to the individual not to exceed the mandatory legal limit set down by the local GCAA. Unless the company can show that the law has been changed it would have ramifications both for the individual and the company concerned.

Ask to the the GCAA approval for this change in the law.
