I think the math would be much more than that. 8 crews per plane isn’t enough. 11-12 crews. 360+ pilots.
All the flights over 12 hrs, 4 crew and if we can get mandatory 2 Capt per flight, then half of that number will be Capts. Up to at least 480 pilots for the 12.

Maybe you mean, Eastern Asia and Western Europe..?

On an avenge sure, but if either way is more than 12, but you’re already familiar I’m sure.
London maybe but Paris and Rome, those are pushing the limits.
Taipei and further, 12+
Anyway, as long as it’s always no less than 2 Captains.
