I quickly looked over 117. Looks much better than the old rest regs. I could see less abuse from scheds on a CDO line vs. RSV? Although, even on RSV under 117 looks to be much better than the old regs.
You could conceivably build yourself some sort of CDO line if you were a round 1 line holder. But you could also build yourself a much better line than a CDO line if you were in that position... I put a CDO into my line next month. No one here seems to like them, but it worked well for me because I had stuff to do both of the days and it will allow me to do that and still make some money. 77 hour line with 15 days off next month. First break I've taken in a while and I'm looking forward to it.
