Does that mean for every month we're paid 10 hours for distance learning? And, if it didn't, why would it say "per calendar month"?
Also, it says up to two days, but couldn't they just change the estimated time for the complete ground training to 9 hours and then only pay one day of 5 hours?
Obviously any change to the training curriculum would need to be approved by the FAA, but I'm sure they could accomplish that.
It says for up to 2 days per calendar month, because the next sentence states. "No more than 2 days of Distance Learning will be administered in any one calendar month."
Just saying they can't overload you with numerous distance learning days, so it can be completed or administered over multiple months.
