He then gave me the following Scenario and had me do a W&B KVNY to LFPB. 0900 T/O. 4 PAX, 200lbs bags, 3 crew... Whats the earliest you can takeoff from LFPB to return to KVNY?
KVNY to LFPB Flight time came out to 10+15. 3-man crew... land at 19:15. Assume Duty off at 19:45. 12 hrs of rest means you can show for Duty at 07:45... takeoff about an hour later = 08:45 departure.
What is the procedure for documenting "beyond planned hours" (exceeding FAR 135.267 or FAR 135.269) flight time limitations?
Any time the flight time is exceeded, an explanation must be given in the note section of the flight log. Example: "exceeded 10 hours flight time due to stronger than forecast head wind"
The flight time from KVNY to LFPB is calculated and planned at 10 hr two crew. If the actual flight time was 10hr15minutes (overflew the flight by 15 min), what would be the earliest we could takeoff to return?
Remember that rest is now 11 hrs since we overflew 0-30 mins. T/O at 0900. Land at 19:15. Assume Duty off at 19+45. 11 hrs of rest means Duty on at 06:45. Earliest T/O would be 07:45.
For a 6 hour flight from KTEB to KLAX and takeoff is made at 1100z and landing at 1700z. What is the earliest time a takeoff can be made back to KTEB? Assume 5 hours for the return.
0700z takeoff due to rolling 10 hours flight time in a 24 hour period
