DL & ia..
Thanks for your input. I read through your scheduling section a few times and also didn't find anything with regards to 8hr flight time limits.. except for the International verbiage.
Flight Time Limitations
1. An international category pilot will not be scheduled for block time in excess of eight hours in a trans-oceanic duty period.
Exceptions: An international category pilot may be scheduled:
a. up to 12 hours block time in a trans-oceanic duty period if the flight crew is augmented with a relief First Officer, or
b. in excess of 12 hours block time in a trans-oceanic duty period if the flight crew is augmented with a relief crew.
2. FAR flight and duty time limitations will be calculated with reference to a pilot’s base time.
I know I'm beating this horse to death, but I need the ammo to show my Union (LOL) but more importantly my fellow pilots that allowing up to 9 hours of flight time un augmented, is manpower negative.
Thanks again and Happy T Day everyone~

PS> It's in our TA but if it passes to become a JCBA.. it will become industry norm.
