need educating here. I have been told that DAL has a 20 buffer after a transpac before y0u can fly again but it is not contractual. This does not sound right to me. I for one like the NWA rule of no less than 15 hours off duty before flying after a crossing. This allowed us to do a multitude of 3 day transpacs in the 25 hour range. Now under the DAL rules we sit 24 more hours turning a 3 day into a 4 day. I have to sleep all day and stay up 2 nights to stay on US time making rest more difficult. I am for max time while flying and min time away form home. Would like to see some relief on this issue. I think this is a win win for the company(not buying extra hotel rooms and less perdieum) And less time away from home for the pilot. open for discussion and would like to know the DAL rule on this.
