The scheduled layover time according to the pairing reports (Ex:#201) is... 31:15. And by using simple math you can see that this is derived from 30 mins after block in (14:45 Local)... to 1 hour prior to departure (22:00 Local).

So essentially, anything longer than a 1:15 delay on the inbound flight will require a subsequent delay on the outbound flight as you will now be less then the required 30 hours of rest. By failing to do so, you will be in violation of the OM-A rest requirement (mandatory 30 hours) which according to the governing body is required to make this pairing legal.

A747jb, Panther 88 or anyone else please feel free to comment and correct any misunderstanding I may have of the fine print. That's how I read it but as always, I could be wrong.

Play by the rules boys and girls... but by all means, use them to your advantage as well.
