Good luck with your schedule. BTW, typo alert, FAR duty day
is 14 hours, actually 10 consecutive hours of duty rest are
required. When we scheduled a charter, we would always ask
our passengers what their expected schedule was, if they
came anywhere close to the limit, we explained before
take-off about the options, If my day started at 5 AM for a
6 AM take-off, my day was done at 7 PM and we'd have to stay
over-night. But if I left the airport and checked into a
motel and got 10 hours rest away from the airport, my day
would be extended if the rest was ten hours. Often they
didn't know their schedule or would not worry about it,
they'd get drunk and be watch a ball game and then be angry
when they showed up at the airport when I had been on-duty
for 13 hours and there was a 2 hour flight to get home.
Sounds like a problem that's easy to solve. Just fly a second crew in to
take you back home. All it takes is sufficient money and desire :-)
