Flight Duty Regs while International
Maybe someone smarter than me can find the answer to this....I've tried searching many documents and can find no answer to this (I think) interesting question....
Why is it that when flying in a foreign country that we must follow the most restrictive rules....ie....vis for departure, speed limit orders etc... but when it comes to Flight Duty times we follow our own countries duty allowances even if the country we are flying into is more restrictive? for example in Canada we are allowed to fly to scheduled 14hrs that can be extended up to 17 hrs. I regularly fly into and over the US where I'm flying way over there duty time and flight time standards.
I've looked for guidance through ICAO but can not find reference to this question.....
Thanks in advance
