Under current scheduling rules, the above rumoured pattern is not permitted.

Noip, what current scheduling rule do you keep referring too? Can you provide the reference?
I can't see the difference between the mooted DXB-LHR patterns and the current SYD-LAX-JFK which is operated two pilot to JFK unless a SO may be operationally required.
I agree, it appears to be a very similar operation.
There seems to be an opinion that the reference to "asian slip" will extend to operations to and from Dubai from LHR. Last time I looked on a map Dubai wasn't in Asia, I think it's a long bow to be drawn to use with this operation.
My bet, 48h Dubai,36h LHR, 48h Dubai. Crewed 4/2/4.
Unless there is a Dubai basing opening up!
