Can't swear to it--and nobody is talking yet--but neither of these are good. Have to pay for it somehow apparently..
Not sure about 1.
2. It is 9 hours if report times is 0500-1959 base time. It is still 8 hours outside that. Also augmented duty time is based off the type of rest facility an aircraft is equipped with and what time show time is.
We can always negotiate tighter requirements. Which I believe the 7:35 is. Since by the FAR’s they could do 8 without an RFO.
The applicable tables are on the last page of this link
