168 is basically a 7 day week. The 30 hour period can be at the front end of a trip but I don't see how this is possible with a 4 day trip followed by a 3 day trip. That situation would be possible only with two 3 day trips.

Unless there is something unusual going on with deadheads or possible a warp in the space time continuum, you need a 30 hour break in there somewhere.

See the bulletin the company e-mailed out today.

I would definitely take a good long look at it before flying it as you have described.

Report on day one at 1600, release on day 7 at 0900. If my math is correct, you just worked 137 hours which means you had at least 30 hours off in the previous 168. You worked 7 days in a row without a 30 hour layover and it's perfectly legal.
