Flight details:
a) from take-off to top of climb -> all 3 pilots are in the flight deck
b) the cruise flight time is then divided in three parts ("legs") for resting.
. 1st: one pilot is resting (junior F/O)
. 2nd: one pilot is resting (Captain) => event start at the begining of it.
. 3rd: one pilot is resting (senior F/O)
c) from top of descent to landing -> all three pilots are in the flight deck.
Does it make sense?
