Well, if you have a 3 hour break, can you go to sleep on minute one and wake up 3 hours later? I think not. I think most guys are like me and takes at least 15 to 20 minutes to eventually get back in the seat and start resting, then you have all the noise from the galley etc. You are lucky if you can get 2 hours of sleep in a 3 hour middle break. Don't get me started on 1st and 3rd...

Yes, it is better than LAX-JFK allnighters, no doubt. But are you saying you do not fly international trips any more because you cannot make it past Fallon?
