I guess the real crux of the matter is would the computers consider it 2 duty periods and require the rest or consider it 1 duty period. If 1 duty period it would then need to decide whether I would get the 5:15 or 10:30. If the opportunity presents itself I'll give it a try and see what happens.
It will not be awarded unless you have the required break in duty time between rotations. You won't even show up on the trip coverage reports Skeds uses to award open time.
