Industry standard now. Too bad NetJets isn't part of the industry, right?
Duty rigs force the airlines to pay pilots for their time (not just flight time). It's up to management to decide what to do with that pilot time. Our utilization/efficiency is not under our control. We should not be deprived of flight pay when management decides to keep us in a hotel for 7 days.
