SA CATS 121.02.10 section 8.2 (b) and (c) Rest periods

SA CATS 121.02.10 section 8.2 (b) and (c) Rest periods

(b) Where a flight crew member has completed two consecutive duty periods, the aggregate
of which exceeds eight hours flight time or eleven hours duty time (extensions by
in-flight relief or split-duty disregarded), and the intervening rest period has been less
than twelve consecutive hours embracing the hours between 11h00 and 06h00 local time,
he or she must have a rest period on the ground of at least twelve consecutive hours
embracing the hours between 22h00 and 06h00 local time or so much longer as to
embrace these hours prior to commencing any further duties, but not necessarily larger
than twenty four consecutive hours; provided that this requirement does not apply in
respect of consecutive flight watch and home reserve duties.
(c) Following fifty hours of duty of any nature associated with his of her employment, except
flight watch and home reserve duty, a flight crew member must have a rest period of not less than twenty-four consecutive hours before commencing further duties.
In need of interpretation of this and could a "local" carrier have SACAA dispensation for these rules, will be interesting to read how you all interpret this rule, how many operators actually take this into account for their planning and those that ignore it due to perceived confusion about the wording.

Normally on a route for route basis. SAA has a similar thing with the '8hrs in the seat' rule on some routes.
