Not sure if the point you're making is a technicality regarding the wording but our duty time is chocks +30minutes. Our FDP (Flight Duty Period) stops at chocks but we're are still on duty until 30 minutes after chocks. Our rest period starts after this.

This is the same FTL scheme as used in the UK and fail to understand why so many people here still get confused between Flight Duty Period and Duty Period.



This is how it works in my country and for the airline I work for....but got a question, what about the time it takes you to get from the airport to the hotel/home? is that count as part of whatever the minimun rest period is or not??? I am saying that period of the 30 mins after chocks that certainly wont take you to any hotel and rest!!
