Previous posts have said 100/30 is calendar month.
This may or may not be true.
Sometimes it is 30 consecutive days.
The FARs are very hard to apply to FedEx cuz we fly a very mixed schedule of 2 3 and 4 man cockpit and domestic and international.
Very often in the same month.
They seem to be crafted around the PAX guys that do ATL MXP ATL 4 times that month and then ATL LHR ATL 4 times the next month.
In the past, I have asked the union and company scheduling for some specifics but can get none.
What is a calendar day? Local? Zulu? 0130 to 0129 LBD?

some snippets of some POSSIBLE applicable FARs:
******************************************
