30 hours of rest is 100% considered a non fly day. Check out the non fly day definition: PWA 23.A.30

Tennis is correct.
Another example of his #2 is a RES pilots finished rotation and does the mandatory schedule check and they see a 30 hour rest and a FDP or RAP that starts the very next minute after the 30 Horus of rest.....both are on the schedule during the mandatory schedule check so its legal.
