by which the standby exceeds 4 hours.
       6.3If an FCM is called out, the maximum combined duration of standby and the subsequent FDP is 16 hours except where the subsequent FDP includes a split‑duty rest period, in suitable sleeping accommodation, of at least 4 consecutive hours.
       6.4 A standby which is completed without a call out must be followed by an off‑duty period of at least 10 consecutive hours.
       6.5 To remove any doubt, the period of time in which an FCM is held in a standby-like arrangement must be treated as a duty period for the purposes of this CAO.
Note   For example, the period spent in a standby-like arrangement must be included as part of a following FDP assigned to the FCM or added to the preceding FDP when determining minimum off-duty periods under clause 8.

    7 Positioning
       On completion of assigned flight duties in an FDP (the relevant FDP), an FCM may position to a suitable location as required by the AOC holder.
Note   As with any duty, the time spent in positioning after completion of the FDP must be added to the relevant FDP when determining minimum off-duty periods under clause 8.

    8 Off-duty periods

 Off-duty period following an FDP
       8.1If the sum of an FCM's FDP, and his or her duty time (if any) after completion of the FDP but before commencement of the following off-duty period, does not exceed 12 hours, his or her following off‑duty period must be at least as follows:
(a) if the FCM is undertaking the off-duty period away from home base — 10 hours;
(b) if the FCM is undertaking the off-duty period at home base — 12 hours.
       8.2If the sum of an FCM's FDP, and his or her duty time (if any) after completion of the FDP but before commencement of the following off-duty period (other duty time), exceeds 12 hours, his or her following off-duty period must be at least the sum of:
(a) 12 hours; and
(b) 1.5 times the time that the FDP and the other duty time exceeded 12 hours.

 Reduction in off-duty period
       8.3 Despite subclause 8.1, if the sum of an FCM's FDP (the last FDP), and his or her duty time (if any) after completion of the FDP but before commencement of the following off‑duty period (other duty time), does not exceed 10 hours, his or her following off-duty period (ODP 2), may be reduced to not less than 9 hours provided that:
(a) the off-duty period undertaken immediately before the last FDP was at least 12 hours, including a local night; and
(b) the ODP 2 is undertaken over a local night; and
(c) the ODP 2 is not
