AMC/IEM Q - FLIGHT AND DUTY TIME LIMITATIONS AND REST REQUIREMENTS
IEM OPS 1.1075

General
See JAR-OPS 1.1075
1 Operators are expected to appreciate the relationship between the frequency and pattern of flight duty
periods and rest periods and give due consideration to the cumulative effects of undertaking long duty hours
interspersed with minimum rest.
2 Other factors that should be considered by operators when planning duty periods include:
a. The allocation of duty patterns which avoid such undesirable practices as alternating day/night duties or the
positioning of crew members so that a serious disruption of established sleep/work patterns occurs; and
b. Planning local days free of duty and notifying crew members in advance.
IEM OPS 1.1075(b)(2)

Planned operations
See JAR-OPS 1.1075(b)(2)
If maximum permitted flight duty periods are exceeded in practice on more than 25% of occasions on a particular
route then the planning is considered unrealistic.
IEM OPS 1.1075(b)(3)

Duty rosters
See JAR-OPS 1.1057(b)(3)
Duty rosters, taking account of the effect of disturbing circadian rhythms and sleep deprivation, should be published
sufficiently in advance to provide the opportunity for crew members to plan adequate rest.
IEM OPS 1.1085(e)(1)

Augmented flight crew - division of time away from controls
See JAR-OPS 1.1085(e)(1)
The sharing of time away from controls between those flight crew members leaving their posts should be kept in
balance.
AMC OPS 1.1085(e)(3)

Augmented flight crew
See JAR-OPS 1.1085(e)(3)
1 If the planned flight duty period of the augmented flight crew exceeds 16 hours then bunks for the resting
flight crew members, separated and screened from the flight deck and the passengers, should be available.
a569_mep.qxd 03/10/2008 12:00 Page 2179
2179
2 If the planned flight duty period of the augmented flight crew is between 14 and 16 hours, a comfortable
reclining seat for the resting flight crew member(s), separated from the flight deck and screened from the passengers,
should be available.
3 If the planned flight duty period of the augmented flight crew is 14 hours or less, a comfortable reclining seat
for the resting flight crew member(s), separated and screened from the passengers, should be available.
AMC to Appendices A & B, JAR-OPS 1.1085(e)(3)

Augmented flight crew
See Appendix A or B (as appropriate), JAR-OPS 1.1085(e)(3)
If the flight duty period is extended by augmenting the flight crew, a comfortable reclining seat for the resting flight
crew member(s), separated and screened from the passengers, should be available.
IEM OPS 1.1085(e)(3) and 1.1090(c)(1)(i)

On board rest facilities
See JAR-OPS 1.1085(e)(3) and 1.1090(c)(1)(i)
If possible, on board rest facilities for crew members should be located well away from designated smoking areas.
AMC OPS 1.1090(c)(1)(ii)

Extension of allowable flight duty periods
See JAR-OPS 1.1090(c)(1)(ii)
1 When allocating flight duty periods above 16 hours for cabin crew members, an operator should ensure that
the following conditions are met:
a. Each cabin crew member is free of duties for a period of time equal to one third of the period calculated by
subtracting one hour for each planned block time from the total block time in the flight duty period; and
b. For at least one third of the number of cabin crew members, bunks for the resting cabin crew members,
separated and screened from the flight deck and the passengers, are available.
2 When allocating flight duty periods above 14 hours, but not exceeding 16 hours, for cabin crew members, an
operator should ensure that the following conditions are met:
a. Each cabin crew member is free of duties for a period of time equal to one quarter of the period calculated by
subtracting one hour for each planned block time from the total block time in the flight duty period; and.
b. For at least one quarter of the number of cabin crew members, comfortable reclining seats for the resting
cabin crew members, separated from the flight deck and screened from the passengers, are available.
3 When allocating flight duty periods for cabin crew members, which are above the maximum flight duty
periods prescribed in JAR-OPS 1. 1090, but not exceeding 14 hours, an operator should ensure that each cabin crew
member is free of duty for one hour.
4 The periods free of duty should preferably be consecutive.

IEMOPS 1.1105
Split duty
See JAR-OPS 1. 1105
The following three examples illustrate the application of the split duty system:
Period 1 Break Period 2 Debriefing Rest period
Total FDP
(max. see JAR-OPS 1.1105(a))
Total duty period Determines rest period
Example 1:
Period 1 1400-2100 = 7 hrs

Break 2100-0400 = 7 hrs, all falling between 2000-0800
Period 2 0400-1100 = 7 hrs
Total FDP = 21 hrs
Debriefing 1100-1130 = 30 mins
Total duty period = 21:30 hrs
Normal maximum FDP is 13 hrs for 1400 reporting time and 2 landings.
1/2
JAR-OPS 1.1105(a), Table 5: Max. FDP in this case is: 13 + (1 x 7) = 23:30
JAR-OPS 1.1105(b): Max. FDP is 20 hrs, therefore this schedule is not permissible.
Example 2:
Period 1 2200-0230 = 4:30 hrs

Break 0230-1030 = 8 hrs, 5:30 falling between 2000-0800
Period 2 1030-1430 = 4 hrs
Total FDP = 16:30 hrs
Total duty period = 17 hrs
JAR-OPS 1.1105(a), Table 5: max. FDP in this case is: 12 + ((2/3 x 8) = 17:20 hrs
JAR-OPS 11.1105(d)(1) requires suitable accommodation to be provided as the break is 6 hrs or more and covers 3 hrs or more
of the period 2200-0600 local time. The minimum rest period required by JAR-OPS 1.11 10(a)(2) in this example is:
17 (total time) - 7 (break) = 10 hrs, however minimum is 11 hrs (JAR-OPS 1.1110(a)(1)).
In accordance with JAR-OPS 1.1105(d)(2), 4hrs of the break are accountable and are added to the total period actually spent on
duty (See JAR-OPS 1.1085(b) or 1.1090(a), as appropriate).
a569_mep.qxd 03/10/2008 12:00 Page 2181
2181
Example 3:
Period 1 0800-1800 = 10 hrs

Break 1800-2200 = 4 hrs, no suitable accommodation
Period 2 2200-2400 = 2 hrs
Total FDP = 16 hrs
Total duty period = 16:30 hrs
JAR-OPS 1.11105(a), Table 5: max. FDP in this case is: 14 + (1/2 x 4) = 16 hrs.
JAR-OPS 1.11110(a)(1); minimum rest period at least as long as the preceding duty period = 16:30 hrs.
In accordance with JAR-OPS 1.11105(d)(2), 4hrs of the break are accountable and are added to the total period actually spent on
duty (See JAR-OPS 1.1085(b) or 1.1090(a), as appropriate).
IEM OPS 1.1110(a)

Rest requirements

Time difference
See JAR-OPS 1.1120
1 An operator should ensure that when the time difference between the beginning and the
end of a duty period is 4 hours or more and:
a. The time difference between the places at which a Flight Duty Period begins and ends is 6 hours or less, the
subsequent rest period is at least as long as the preceding duty period or 14 hours, whichever is the greater; or
b. The time difference between the places at which a Flight Duty Period begins and ends is more than 6 hours,
the subsequent rest period is at least as long as the preceding duty period or 16 hours, whichever is the greater.
2 An operator should ensure that, for a crew member who has carried out one or more duty periods in which
the time difference between the places at which the duties began and ended was 4 hours or more (as in paragraph 1
above), and who ends a Flight Duty Period at a place with a time difference of no more than 1 hour from his home
base, the rest period is calculated as follows:
a. When the time away from home base was 42 hours or less, rest is calculated in accordance
with sub-paragraph 1 (a) or 1 (b) above as applicable.
b. When the time away from home base was more than 42 hours but less than 60 hours, the time difference
between the home base and the place with the greatest time difference at which a rest period was taken (up to 12
hours maximum), should be multiplied by the factor 4 and applied as the minimum rest period.
C. When the time away from home base was 60 hours or more, the time difference, between the home base
and the place with the greatest time difference at which a rest period was taken (up to 12 hours maximum), should be
multiplied by the factor 8. However, if the last rest period before returning to home base was 48 hours or more, and
was taken at a place separated by less than 4 hours time difference from the home base, the factor 8, used to
calculate the rest period above, may be reduced to 4.
3 If the end of the Flight Duty Period mentioned in paragraph 2 above is not at the home base, the crew
member is permitted to undertake only one single FDP ending at the home base before commencing a rest period
calculated in accordance with sub-paragraphs 2a to 2c above as applicable.
4 Where 2 successive rotations are undertaken in the same east or west direction, the rest period following the
first rotation (covered by sub-paragraphs 2b and 2c above) may be reduced to 14 or 16 hours in accordance with
sub-paragraphs la and lb above. However, this rest period should include at least 8 hours between 2200 and 0800
local time at the place of rest. Following the second rotation, the minimum rest should be 8 times the maximum time
difference between home base and the place at which a rest period was taken and should include at least two periods
of 8 hours between 2200 and 0800 local time at the place of rest.
Note: For the purposes of paragraph 4 above, "Rotation" means a trip involving no more than 2 FDPs which starts
and finishes at a place where there is no time difference with the home base.
