Training While Working Duty Times
Posted: Tue May 14, 2019 9:28 am
Good morning.
Before someone says search, I have been and reading the CARs. But for the life of me I have not found definitive confirmation about how training and/or recreational flying affects ones time limitations under the new regs. I work skydiving right now. Normally not a very busy gig however if the last month has shown me anything, it could be for the 28 and 90 day limitations (30 hours this weekend alone). I have also started my multi training and it's got me wondering the legality of work and training times counting. I know that private time building is counted toward the flight time restrictions, but even for this I have not found confirmation in the CARs. I admit I struggle with the Air Law side of things at times. I don't really see much separating anything out of the flight time restrictions. I can not see a statement such as "these rules apply except when in a training environment" or what have you. I read it as all flight times counting though not duty time. Ultimately once I know I want to set up a new spread sheet to track all this stuff but need to make sure I get it right!
Thank you in advance for your help!
