Re-route
#51
In my opinion, having the company and the chief pilot questioning you is intimidation.

I had a 4F1R once and couldn't find what the R meant. I found it in my PAS statement for the month and the R meant the rotation was removed for company connivence or some such wording, not reroute.

Can I just cite the research that advised against the extension? Here's my statement:
Legal or not researchers advised against providing an extension option because of the proven degradation of performance beyond 12 hours. I am acting in the interest of safety. The ability to self evaluate also degrades beyond 12 hours.

In a variety of studies, fatigued individuals consistently underreported how tired they really were, as measured by physiologic parameters. A tired individual truly does not realize the extent of actual impairment. No degree of experience, motivation, medication, coffee, or will power can overcome fatigue.

We're being asked to decide right now how we think we would feel 10 hours from now (I'm referring to international). Just happened to me last week. Add on top of that 117 telling me I'm acclimated to a time zone 9 zones from reality just because I had a 30 hour layover.
And the implied threat of docking your pay during the inquisition concerning the refusal of an extension is intimidation, whether it affects your decision or not. The intent is to intimidate you.
We should have to request the extension, rather than have to jump through all the hoops to refuse it.
