Gents, you've miss read the regulation, it states that:

The duration of the flight rest time is not to be included in the flight time cumulative limits, but will be included in the Flight Duty Period Duty Time for cumulative limits consideration.

The cumulative limits are:
(b) The maximum cumulative duty hours for Flight crew of an aeroplane shall not exceed;
(1) 55 hours in one week, but may be increased to 60 hours, when rostered duty covering a series of duty periods, once commenced, is subject to unforeseen delays.
(2) 95 hours in any 2 consecutive weeks, and;
(3) 190 hours in any 4 consecutive weeks.
(4) 2000 Hours in 12 consecutive months

It still counts towards the Absolute Limits on Flying Hours, so this intact actually suits us - it does away with factoring. We'll now have to work from blocks off to blocks on!!!
