I'm not saying it's a good trip I was just wondering why you were complaining about a long layover and implying a shorter layover would be better so you could just sleep once.
I never said I wanted to fly the trip and as noted above said it wasn't a good trip. I was simply pointing out to you that you were wrong by implying that a short layover was illegal. I also pointed out that once proven wrong you went quiet. Every pilot on this board has flown a harder trip that isn't disputed. I'll take a 20 hour layover anytime I can get one vs a 12 hour layover. Before you blow a gasket I don't fly DPs either.
