From one of the union Q& A's: Q6. Regarding Section E.5., how is this home training not considered a type of duty under FAR 117? A6. Currently, the FAA's position is that training is limited only by due date may be done voluntarily at a time of the pilots choosing. This avoids the need to track as duty under the FAR's. However, pilots should NOT PERFORM THE TRAINING SO AS TO COMPROMISE FITNESS FOR DUTY!

You can bet your extra two hours on this , if you do two days of DL on day one and two, then run off end at LGA on day seven after working seven days straight, the FAA WILL conclude that your DL compromised your fitness for duty. Will your NC come running to your rescue in the same way they want us to come running to theirs?

What if you log on and pull an "all nighter" in the hotel to get your DL finished before the day you have an incident? If you think that Bendo wont use the "spirit has the right to look at your partition" words to determine if you were on your ipad, you're more simple than me.

Leaving the flight case at home isnt adequate compensation for what they want.

Dont say you weren't warned!
