Flight hour limits??
 

I’m trying to determine international flight hour limits and find it confusing.

How does crew scheduling track this if one has both flying trips and non-flying (FO and RFO) in the same month.

How about when you have domestic and international in the same month?

Seems like with all these revisions I am close to going over limits . it’s not easy for me to figure it all out.

Anyone have an easy way to figure it all out?

Thanks in advance.

A quick google search gave me this. Part 121.515 thru 121.521 will answer all questions regarding annual, 30 and 90 day limits. I didn't see a 7 day or weekly limit. Quick take; No differences in these 121 regs reg. domestic and international. All flying, whether augmented or not is counted. So if you are sleeping to DXB, you are still building time toward your limits.

Okay I found the 7 day limit. 121.481. One or two pilots, 35 hours in 7 days. Interesting hour exception in 121.485, 350 hour limits for 90 consecutive days if you meet the criteria of that part.

Thanks.

We have the flight hour limits in our FOM.

Just wondering if there’s an easy way to see it all broken down and separated on PFC.

try Operating experience summary in vips. Click the links in the right column to bring up 30-60-90 day lists with block hour totals for that period displayed at the bottom.

That OE summary doesn’t include RFO time...
