4.3 Flight Breaks

vAAirlines crew members are permitted to take flight breaks when flying offline. Flight breaks should not exceed 10 minutes on flights less than an hour, 20 minutes on flights less than an hour and a half, 30 minutes on flights less than two and a half hours, and 45 minutes on flights less than four hours. For flights over four hours, a break of 75 minutes is approved. Pausing a flight does not count as a break and may be done for extensive periods of time provided that the crew member is not on any Virtual Air Traffic network. If flying online on a Virtual Air Traffic network, flight breaks are to be conducted in accordance with that network’s policy and should be requested from the controlling agency if applicable.
