This is
all about FTL.
So you don't have much useful to contribute.
The 'old' UK FTLs were more thought out, well developed over time and added to by very pertinent studies of actual pilot fatigue (both in short-haul, I took part in one, and long-haul). The EU FTLs were a political 'fudge'. (One of the 'fatigue models' used to 'enhance' the EU FTLs is based on fatigue studies on US railroad engineers!!)
