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

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

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