wiggy, can I ask a question? In the Florida scenario you give with three crew members, would the captain and first officer fly the whole flight without a change-over with the relief pilot, given that the flight can operate with only two crew?

Does this not mean that the captain has to command a flight out and a flight back with one night in between, even though he has two F/Os to occupy the RHS? In other words, the captain gets less rest?
