Incidentally, regarding UPS: It was my understanding that they would have been legal even under Part 117, as they had their two hour nap.
Everyone likes to confuse safety with legality. They're not the same thing. They're nowhere near the same thing. You can have an operation that's perfectly safe and completely illegal, and you can have a perfectly compliant operation that is ridiculously unsafe. The bottom line under 121Q (etc.) and 117 are still the same: if you think you're fatigued you don't go. (I'm not even close to 60, but I've got no problem calling in fatigued when the situation demands it.)
Ah yes, the minimum days off for minimum monthly guarantee discussion that never ends. Of course, you can also be frighteningly efficient under Part 117.
@Screaming_Emu has flown 35+ hours in 7 days which was impossible under the old world order. A failure to adapt to the regulatory landscape is...unfortunate.
