Extended flight duty period: additiond flight cnew - Additional flight crew
afford the opportunity for each flight crew nember to reduce the time at the
conrrols and provide for sleep during a flight duty period. Consequently, with
additional flight crew and an opporn¡nity for sleep, it would be expected that
fatigue would accumulate more slowly. In such circumstances, flight duty
periods can be increased beyond the recommended limit of l2 hours within each
24-hour period. For each additional flight crew member who rotates into the
flight deck positions, the flight duty period can be extended b-v- -l hours as long as
the following requirements are met: l) each flight crew member be provided one
or rnore on-duty sleep opportunities; and 2) when the extended flight duty period
is l4 hours or longer, adequate sleep facilities (supine position) are provided that
are separated and screened from the flight deck and passengers. Controlled rest
on the flight deck is not a substitute for the sleep opportunities or facilities
required for additional flight crew nrcmbers.
