-DUDE- You are the one who brought up the reference to supplemental ops (which does not apply to UPS, and therefor not relevant to this discussion), not me. Furthermore, the examples I referenced - which do apply- (Q 40 & 41, according to your link), clearly state that training and deadheading are not "free of duty". In other words, they are duty.
I'm not trying to be a smart ass either, but c'mon, even a freshman regional pilot knows he is on duty when deadheading around in the back of an airplane.
