EASA FTL Reference Table
Basic max daily FDP — acclimatised — the reference table, properly sourced, with the reading rules that make it usable.
The 0600-1329 'friendly window' and the 9-hour floor frame every EU roster — and the half-hour-per-sector slope is why six-sector days start at dawn.

Frequently asked questions
Why do EU multi-sector days always start early?+
The table's geometry forces it: maximum FDP peaks for reports between 0600-1329 and the per-sector reduction (30 minutes each from the third sector) eats the day from the other end — so a six-sector schedule only fits inside the friendly morning window. Report at 1700 and the same six sectors meet the 9-hour floor immediately. Schedulers live inside this shape; crews who know it can read a roster's legality at a glance.
Is this table authoritative for operations?+
It's a faithful working summary, sourced to Regulation — but tables in tools, apps and even ops manuals are copies, and the rule text plus your operator's approved scheme govern when anything disagrees. Use this for speed and study; cite the regulation for decisions that get audited. The source line exists precisely so verification takes one lookup.
Do I need an account or internet connection?+
No account and no connection are needed once the page has loaded — records live in local storage on your device and every calculation runs in your browser. Data doesn't sync between devices, so export the CSV when you want to move or archive your records.
What format does the export use and what reads it?+
A plain CSV with one row per entry and labelled column headers — the most portable format there is. Spreadsheets open it directly, most specialised software can map it on import, and a printed copy is perfectly legible to a human reviewer. Nothing proprietary means your reference data is never trapped here.
