FAA: No additional time on duty and rest time rule
15. ockober 2010 12:42 | PilotsFlight Global
The US FAA has denied a request by the Air Transport Association, four other airline advocacy groups and at least two airlines to extend the comment period by as much as 180 days on a new proposed rule to alter flight duty and rest regulations to combat fatigue.
"In 2009, the FAA established the Flight and Duty Time Limitations and Rest Requirements aviation rulemaking committee (ARC)," the FAA states in a notice to be published tomorrow. "The ARC provided a forum for the aviation industry to give extensive input on revising current flight and duty time limitations regulations. Therefore the FAA does not believe it is necessary to extend the comment period."
