I completely agree that at that point, it is up to you as the pilot whether or not to continue on after the 14hrs as a Part 91 flight. As part of this, I do extend my 10hrs of required rest in the previous 24 from the time I get home though.
BTW, always calculate the return leg times towards your 8 in 24 rule. My boss tried doing that to me, but I'd say look, in the last rotating 24hrs I flew XXX and that puts me 1-3hrs over. Sometimes it sucked because I was well rested, but I've also had times where it's protected me.
In the end it's always about CYA(Cover your ___)
Love the avatar btw, nice work!
Let's be sure of what regs we are following. The going home part 91 flight is not subject to the 135 8 in 24 rule. For tomorrow's 135 flights, after your minimum 10 hour rest, that part 91 flight time last night counts against your rolling 8 in 24 limit.
