FAR117 question
Planning to follow up with ALPA tomorrow, but I got different answers from dispatch/crew tracking and duty pilot.
Part 117 table B - imagine if you will, being ATL based, and reporting for duty at 0600 local at SMF. Going to fly 3 legs. So do I enter the table at 06:00-06:59, which gives me 12 hours FDP, or do I enter at 07:00-11:59 (9:00 base time) which gives me 13 hours FDP?

The time is based on the last acclimated city time zone. The acclimated city will remain the same as the start of the rotation unless you change theaters and meet the FAR requirements to “re-acclimate.”
Last Acclimated City” is the time zone to use to determine the max FDP limit in Section 12 D. 2. and 3. which is the same as FAR 117 Table B and C.

One exception to this is if you are on a OOBGS/WS etc. The acclimated time would be the base where you report.

I believe you misread the OP? "0600 local at SMF" is 0900 ATL (his base)....

*** Mods can you please delete my post, it's #5. Thank you. I forgot SMF is Sacremento and thus is Pacific time zone. ***

Oh yes I did thank you. It's whatever base time he's acclimated at. Which is ATL. So thus 0900. I'll ask the mods to delete that since it's wrong. I should have some more coffee.
