AFTER TRADING UP TO 2 SCHEDULED TRIPS PLT FINDS HIMSELF EXCEEDING THE 30 HRS IN 7 DAY PERIOD.

Narrative

I'M A FO FOR AIRLINES AND ON SEP/XX/93 I UNINTENTIONALLY VIOLATED THE FAR OF 30 HRS IN 7 DAYS. I WAS SCHEDULED FOR 30.6 HRS AND I ACTUALLY FLEW 30.3 HRS. IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THIS PRIOR TO RPTING TO WORK; I WOULD HAVE INFORMED OUR SCHEDULING DEPT TO HAVE MYSELF REMOVED FROM THE TRIP. HOWEVER; SCHEDULING WAS ALSO UNAWARE. SCHEDULING AND I BOTH MISSED THIS; BUT I'M WRITING THIS TO TRY AND PROTECT MYSELF BECAUSE I AM OBVIOUSLY THE PERSON THE FAA WOULD TRY TO VIOLATE IF THEY FOUND THIS OUT. OUR SCHEDULING DEPT IS NOT YET COMPUTERIZED IN REGARDS TO THE 30 IN 7 FOR OUR PLTS. SCHEDULING AND THE PLTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KEEPING TRACK OF THIS AND; UNFORTUNATELY; IT SLIPPED BY BOTH OF US. THE PROB BEGAN WHEN I ACCEPTED; AND SCHEDULING APPROVED; 2 TRIP TRADES. I ORIGINALLY WAS SCHEDULED FOR 2 RESERVE DAYS; EACH WORTH 3.8 HRS. THE TRIP TRADES WERE 6.0 AND 6.9 HRS; RESPECTIVELY; WHICH AMOUNTED TO 30.6 HRS. I'M INTERESTED IN OBTAINING ADDITIONAL INFO FROM NASA ABOUT WHAT EXACTLY ARE THE ADVANTAGES AND SOME OF THE LIMITATIONS OF FILLING THIS RPT OUT. I.E.; DOES THIS MAKE ME IMMUNE TO A VIOLATION? IF CAUGHT BY THE FEDS ON THIS PARTICULAR SIT WHAT GOOD DOES THIS RPT DO? WOULD IT BE ON MY RECORD FOR 2 YRS? WHAT ARE SOME OTHER ACTIONS I COULD TAKE TO PROTECT MYSELF HERE?
