I'd done it successfully in the past but couldn't swing it this one time. Noted in my report this wouldn't have been legal during a combat deployment without a General Officer waiver. Good to go in the 121 world I guess. My two operational/paid calls involved hotel issues.
Will second this; my last one came after two consecutive min-rest overnights that went into a circadian swap leading to an 11 hour, 3 leg day. Late report for a turn that delayed 3 hours, got home at 2am, followed by min-rest to a deadhead, which also delayed, into another min-rest with a 6am sign-in.
Last day was supposed to be 3 legs, with a nice victory lap, got home and fatigued out. Cited the 2 consecutive min-rest overnights and circadian swap and it was deemed operational. Reading these, I'm curious if its more on who reviews it than what you write.
