This is why I differentiated between what I could accept before and after 1800: the "OR". I could defend legal to start (and complete) a RAP, and legal to start (and complete) a FDP that REPORTS
prior to 1800, but not after.
After 1800 I cannot look back 168 hours and see a 30-hour prospective rest period, thus
I don't believe I'm legal to start a FDP (even out of a RAP) after 1800.
Since a DH-only duty period has been determined to NOT be a FDP, and that means that I could accept
that right up to the end of the RAP.
Again, an ALPA 117 guru, please chime in.
