CAD-371.11.3.1Extension of Flying duty period

by In- flight relief :If a crewmember is provided inflight rest greater than or equal to 3:00 the Maximum FDP in cad-371.11.1 may be increased as follows:

• The in-flight rest period must occur before the FCM has accrued more than 8:00 consecutive time at the controls.

• The total time at the controls within a single FDP may not exceed 10:00. • The amount of in-flight rest is equal to the actual block time minus 1:00.

Examples:• A FCM starts a FDP in an acclimated state at on a three sector FDP at 10:00 local time.• The Table A FDP limit is 11:45, with 3:30 inflight rest provided in a BUNK, the FDP may be scheduled

up to 13:30 = 11:45 + (3:30 * 50%) = 11:45 + 1:45.

• The Table A FDP limit is 11:45, with 3:30 inflight rest provided in a SEAT, the FDP may be scheduled up to 12:55 = 11:45 + (3:30 * 33%) = 11:45 + 1:10.

• The FDP limitations in this part may be further extended using the provisions in CAD-371.12 – Long Range Operations (LRO) or CAD-371.13 – Ultra Long Range Operations (ULR).

Bunk Seat

Permitted Extension

50% of the Inflight rest to a maximum of 18:00

33% of the in-flight rest given to a maximum of 15:00


This provision may only be applied under the following constraints:

The FDP must contain a sector greater than 10:00 and less than or equal to 16:00. All FCMs must receive at least 3:00 in-flight rest. No more than 2 sectors in any LRO FDP. 3 FCM LRO FDP:

o Only one sector is permitted for a sector greater than 13:00 .o A Bunk is required when any sector is greater than 11:00.o The Max permitted scheduled is:

4 FCM LRO FDP: o The Max FDP is 18:00o A bunk must be provided for all FCM’s during in-flight rest periods.

CAD-371.12Long Rang Operations (LRO):


Immediate Preceding Rest Maximum FDP

Physiological Rest Achieved In accordance

with 20.3.314:45

Physiological Rest Not Achieved 13:00

This provision may only be applied under the following constraints:

The FDP must contain a sector greater than 16:00. Minimum of 4 FCMs. A bunk must be provided for all FCM’s during in-flight rest periods. Maximum of 1 sector scheduled during a ULR FDP. Max FDP is 19:00 No more than two ULR FDP’s within a duty cycle. Maximum total number of scheduled sectors during a duty cycle that includes a ULR FDP is 4. Each FCM must be provided a minimum of 3:00 in-flight rest during the ULR FDP. The in-flight rest must occur at or before 8:00 consecutive time at the controls. Total time at the controls may not exceed 10:00 during a ULR FDP. Any duty cycle that contains a ULR FDP must adhere to the rest requirements in CAD-371.20.4.
