25
Q

Fill in the blank: Non-commercial/private operations need not consider the effect of _______ on Duty Time periods.

A

[acclimatisation].

26
Q

What is the maximum applicable Flight Duty Period (FDP) extension for augmented crew operations?

A

Not more than 2 hours

The extension is determined by the Commander and communicated to the crewmembers.

27
Q

What must the commander notify the DFO or CP about if unforeseen circumstances occur during the final sector?

A

A CDR filled via Centrik

This notification is required if the permitted increase in FDP is exceeded.

28
Q

What is the maximum aggregate flight time allowed in a 28-day period?

A

100 hours

This limit applies to the total of all previous flight times.

29
Q

What is the maximum aggregate flight time allowed in a 12-month period?

A

900 hours

This limit is calculated up to the end of the previous month.

30
Q

What is the maximum duty hours for flight crew in one FDP without split duty?

A

18 hours

With split duty, the maximum can be extended to 20 hours.

31
Q

What is the maximum duty hours for flight crew in 7 consecutive days?

A

70 hours

32
Q

What is the maximum duty hours for flight crew in any 14 consecutive days?

A

120 hours

33
Q

What is the minimum rest period required before undertaking a Flying Duty Period?

A

12 hours

This can be extended to 13 hours after an extended FDP.

34
Q

Under what exceptional circumstances can the minimum rest period be reduced to 11 hours?

A

At the PIC’s discretion

This should only be considered after assessing previous/subsequent duty and other factors.

35
Q

What is the minimum accommodation requirement for rest periods?

A

Well-furnished bedroom with minimum noise, well-ventilated, and control over light and temperature.

36
Q

What happens to the minimum rest period if traveling time to accommodation exceeds 30 minutes each way?

A

It must be extended

The rest period will be increased by the travel time.

37
Q

Fill in the blank: A person shall not act as a member of the flight crew if their previous flight times during 28 consecutive days exceed _______.

A

100 hours

38
Q

Fill in the blank: The maximum extension of the FDP is determined by the _______.

A

Commander

39
Q

What is the minimum time a room allocated to a crewmember must be available for occupation?

A

10 hours

This is the minimum requirement for accommodation during travel.

40
Q

What is the minimum rest period after 7 days of duty for crew members?

A

36 hours

This ensures crew members have adequate rest after extended duty.

41
Q

How many days off must crew members have in any consecutive 4 weeks?

A

7 days

This is a regulatory requirement to ensure crew well-being.

42
Q

What is a single day defined as in terms of time?

A

24 hours starting at 00:01 local time

43
Q

What is the average number of days off crew members must have in each consecutive 4-week period?

A

At least 8 days

This average is calculated over 3 consecutive 4-week periods.

44
Q

For Non-commercial Operations, what is the usual requirement for Reduced Landing Distance Required (LDA)?

A

80% LDA

This is an increase from the usual 60% LDA requirement.

45
Q

How is the LDA adjusted for wet runway operations in Non-commercial Operations?

A

Factored LDR is multiplied by 15%

This adjustment accounts for reduced traction on wet surfaces.

46
Q

What is the formula to calculate the required landing distance on a wet runway for Non-commercial Operations?

A

AFM LDR * 1.25 * 1.15

This results in AFM LDR multiplied by 1.44.

47
Q

What data is used for Net Take-off Flight Path in Non-commercial Operations?

A

iPreFlight Genesis aerodrome analysis data

This data can be accessed through PreFlight Genesis or other electronic systems.

48
Q

What is required for take-off data without full PreFlight Genesis analysis?

A

Permission of the DFO or management pilot

This ensures safety and compliance with operational standards.

49
Q

What must the aircraft Pilot in Command ensure when using non-PreFlight Genesis analysis?

A

Known obstacles are taken into account and correct factoring of winds

This is crucial for flight safety and performance accuracy.
