Well...yes, scheduled block no more than 2 hours each way, or 2+15 with concurrence of scheduling chairman. But that's scheduled, not actual. There's very little protection in case of IROPS in this language. 3 hours behind the door & up to 14 hours total duty (with extension), basically FAR mins/max.
