I'm as p****d as the next guy over stupidity in the way some flights are rostered.
But, I have to agree that the ONLY way you could possibly file an ASRF is if the company don't provide you with an "adequate rest opportunity" between flights.
If they do, you've got nothing. If they don't, they're in breach of the ANRs and I really don't think that's the case.
If you want to protest the pattern without flying it, then the way to go is a CHIRP. Straight to the chairman and the HKCAD.
If you fly it AND you're knackered, ASRF.
FWIW, the one that gets my goat is the way the FTLs solemnly state that "rest periods of between 18 & 30 hours will be avoided"...yet that's all we ever get. WTF?
