Extending Flight and Duty Limits for COVID-19 "Special Ops"
COVID-19 Webinar Series • 30-Jun-2020
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in some circumstances where there may be a need for operators to move outside existing flight and duty limits and related requirements to enable essential or emergency services. As some of these extended operations are beyond current operational experience with little or no evidence as to their safety implications, it is particularly important for States to ensure the fatigue risk linked to extended operations, is managed in a way that supports adequate crew performance and recovery.
This webinar will provide an opportunity to explore the responsibilities of States and operators related to extended COVID-19 "special operations", including the need for enhanced monitoring. It is aimed at airlines who may wish to apply for extensions and to regulators who approve these applications.
