UAE GCAA Flight Duty Times
 

The lastest GCAA regulation in regard to FTL, is now old news, but is just being included in ops manuals.

The interesting reference to TDP ending as the wheels stop turing is interesting.

Does the FDP restart when positioning from pax drop off to the night stop parking lot.?????

In my operation, the wheel stop turning, the pax disembark, and then we can spend the next hour or so cleaning the aircraft, sorting out customs, hotels, etc, etc. All the duties that corporate pilots expect, that airliner drivers do not.

If I have an incident on board, in this limbo period, am I on duty???

Thanks guys.
