Day 4: TUL-ATL, ATL-RIC, RIC-ATL

After they noop’d the trip, they put it back into open time as follows:

Day 1: ATL-MKE, MKE-ATL, ATL-TUL
Day 2: 30 Hour Layover
Day 3: TUL-ATL, ATL-RIC, RIC-ATL

Esentinally it is the same trip from day 2 on except they added flying to it with the MKE turn. I know it isn’t legal to reroute someone before a trip starts by adding flying. However, after they noop’d the trip they assigned it back to me as recovery flying. Does that pass the sanity check or is that a creative way of doing what they are not allowed to do?
