No change in longtitude..class 3 rest facility aka just the jumpseat as your rest facility.. say you are doing miami to lima out and backs for a month.. thats 11 hours of flying in a day with a 3 man crew and in the preceding 30 days you have done a 2 man trip like a san juan turn out of miami..

Whether you have flown augmented or unaugmented during a month makes no difference under FAR 117. It only affects your flight/duty limits within that specific FDP. In your scenario, you could alternate Miami- Lima, and Miami- San Juan all month long.

The cockpit jumpseat in almost all cases should not qualify as an approved rest seat as it doesn’t meet the definition of what a Class3 rest seat is.
(3) Class 3 rest facility means a seat in an aircraft cabin or flight deck that reclines at least 40 degrees and provides leg and foot support.
United has had to modify the Guam 737’s (by installing a special first class seat for the island hopper) in order comply with the FAR.
