What rest requirements are those? I'm on day 8 of 9 with a four hour commute on each end and two red eyes stuffed in there flying an Airbus for B6. 117 has done little for fatigue safety. We're cycling from red eyes to day trips in the same four day sequence. Flying from JFK to Vegas at 6am eastern, then 11 hours later flying back to JFK. How do you manage sleep on that one?
