Pilot & Cabin Crew Working limits
 

Hi,

Apologies if I have posted this in the wrong section. I am currently a Aviation Technology student at Leeds, and as part of an Airline Economics project, we are required to put together a 5 year Business plan for an expanding airline.

I am currently looking at the crewing side of the project and would be grateful if anyone could devulge the working time limits for both pilots and cabin crew? I.e. How long they can fly for before they need a "rest" and how long this rest period is needed to be.

Thank you.

Justin.

CAP 371 is the relevant CAA publication on which airlines (mostly :)) base their Flight Time Limitations. Happy reading!

Thanks very much!
