ARAC WORKING GROUP<br />

PILOT MEMBERS SUBMISSION<br />

The 78,000 airline pilots who were represented at the ARAC Working Group welcome<br />

the opportunity to provide their unified position regarding a reserve rest re_sulation. We are<br />

pleased that the Working Group was able to reach a consensus that pilots who are assigned<br />

reserve duty should have a protected rest period during every 24 hours. However, we are very<br />

disappointed that we were unable to reach a consensus as to the "scheme" that would best<br />

provide the required rest.<br />

We believe that the efforts of the Working Group will prove helpful to rhe FAA in<br />

formulating a final regulation. The differing positions of the parties have been narrowed and<br />

clearly identified. It is now up to the FAA to timely promulgate a hnal regulation.<br />
