My airline has it in the FOM that we use 121.503-511,
so in our case 20 hrs is the max duty for a heavy crew and can not be extended.
I don’t doubt that. It would be hideous if the company could change which one you fall under on a whim. I was just showing that 24 really is a CBA limitation at some companies, and not a FAR.
