the rigs need to get better for BOS/NYC to LHR/EDI flying.

if I’m going to screw up my body clock with a 4/5 hour time zone change and two nights of getting crappy sleep.. I ought to be getting more than 15:45 for it.

any international trip that crosses more than 3 time zones in a single duty period should have some kind of bonus rig attached to it

That's fine, but like the poster said, be careful what you wish for.

Oh and welcome to international. Where all the layovers are cool and sleep don't matter.

DH at the end does not count for FAR FDP purposes but it does count towards the PWA FDP.

When has the company given a crap about that (PWA FDP) I ACE'd it then fatigued out after my 10:35 rest at LAX that night.

10:35 rest at LAX isn't sufficient after a long ass 4 leg day, middle seat coach DH.

Got zero pushback on that call to the DP.
