The 777 will be the only fleet approved for FRMS, or Fatigue Risk Management System.
Details include:
– FDP limit of 20.5 hours (extendable to 22.5 with PIC concurrence)
– Eliminated the flight time limit
– Requires additional pre duty planned/minimum rest:
– Requires a minimum of 56 hours rest upon return to base, which must include three physiological nights
– Can only be used for 4-pilot operations on the 777
