Everybody is able to calculate his/her FDP. Does anyone know how long can your duty be? I mean how long can your positioning after flight can be?
Off the top of my head, I think DP (Duty Period) is limited to 60 hrs per rolling 7 days by EASA FTL. That's the first limiter. There is no max DP before rest, like there is for FDP.

Fortunately we have a through collective bargaining limited that to a lower number, so the company cannot have it both ways, i.e. long 'down time' followed by max flying hours, FDP or block.
