So you can factor ULR/ 3 crew flights for your yearly 900 but not for the 100 in 28.(Strange)
GCCA turned down Ek's request for 1000hrs, but said ok to factoring which means you can do more than 1000hrs.(Strange)
Doesn't make any sense!
Oh No mention of factoring in the copy of CAR-OPS1 that I have. Dated 01 Nov 2009
Is it legal...Not sure.
