I would suggest you actually go back and read what ALPA suggested. Yes there was a 9 hour max however only if scheduled in your body cycle. Non of the current flights to Europe fit that. In fact with the normal departure and arrival times in Europe the ALPA proposal restricts the flight time to 7 hours before a relief pilot has to be onboard. It will increase not decrease jobs and augmented flights.

Heyas,
9 hours block
14 hour hard limit on duty
10-12 hours minimum rest behind the door depending on scheduled flight time
no reduced rest
pilots must be in base 10 hours prior to report
both management and pilots will oppose it, so it will be dead in the water and the FAA will say "told you so, don't tell us how to do our job"
Nu
PS Just kidding

im surprised the rules havent been leaked--- they've been finalized and im pretty sure the airlines know what the new rules are-- as prob does alpa national.
we can expect exactly what the article says.
prob a 6 leg limit at the regionals
up to 10 hours of flying to allow transcon round trips during normal circadian rythm hours.
and less during red eye hours
i havent a clue whats going to happen with commuters- if anything.

I don't think many people realize that although laws may change, contracts won't. We will still be paid the same, we just end up with fewer hours of pay and fewer days off. Basically, its exactly what all of us bid against.
