Just a little pet peeve i don't like seeing guys flying over their FAR minimum i see logs with guys flying 44-50 hours in a 7-day period...They are active thats Great!, but if we want to strive for realism this rule should be enforced..i don't think management posted the restriction just to spice up the hours page...

That's why you fill in in your pirep 2 or 4 aircrew so you can fly longer then the 8 hours per day. Otherwhise we couldn't do a flight from LAX to HHH which will take 10 hours for example

yeah i know about relief crews and stuff like that but won't they be limited to Block times IE while bidding the Pilot would only get 32 hours per week that he can log

Jamal, actually we don't have all that many that are doing this. Right now if you review the roster, you will find several indicating a large number of hours over the limit. This is due to the re-submission of flights from FSFK that did not make the trip over to the new ISP. My hours are probably way over due to this as well, I resubmitted over 200 hours I think it was so all of that will show up all at once on my name.

Remember on the flights with 2 legs, and if the first is 8 hours you are finished for the day and have to fly the second leg the next day.
