I can't see how scheduling can say that he's on SC for only 24 hours. SATchip is scheduled to start SC at 1500 on the 28th, and end at 1500 on the 30th. Looks like 48 hours to me.
I posted a note in the ALPA forum for Scrappy - he's usually quick but he may be doing something else.

You guys got the answer right. Scheduling can give you back to back int'l SC, but they have to show you on rest for 10 hours (8 hrs rest plus 2 hrs report) before the second or subsequent. The computer will not allow them to put two 24 hr blocks back to back. If that has happened, someone manually overrode something.

would like back to back intl sc when I'm on reserve. Fewer commutes, better rest, same hotel bill.
