Monthly flight time

Hi folks,
I am having a problem with the monthly flight time.
First, for international flying I believe the rule is 30 day flight time. [one would be dropping time as the days go by from the previous month.]

Right now the monthly times are locked up, I can't bid on any open board flights, because I have exceeded the 100 hour limit. I don't think I have flown the 111, hours shown.
I had the same thing last month, and the hours never cleared out after the change in months, it took a few days.
Thanks, Jerry Friz, near KSEA

03/09/17  GTI8110	09:11
03/08/17  GTI9097	06:35
03/07/17  GTI8098	06:35
03/06/17  GTI5464	10:17
03/06/17  GTI5464	00:49
03/05/17  GTI5462	04:38
03/05/17  GTI5463	03:04
03/04/17  GTI9022	02:23

	Total Time →	111:48

it is 100 last 30 days, so it should be possible to do Your first flight at or after April 05! Monthly Flight Bids should be not affected.

Hi Volker,
Okay, thanks for checking.
Looks like modified domestic flight rules being used. [only 100 hours] Monthly time should reset on the first of the month.
I guess this is more like the 30 day flight rule. Seems we should be using international flight rules.
At any rate not a big deal.

Hi Volker,
121 operations include both domestic, and international. The crew flight times are different, like I said, not a big deal anyway.
