Bad time for a contract?

[twepilot]

the 11 hour flight time limit looks like they are going to allow transcon roundtrips and international legs without a relief crew. This will take into account a max duty day limit.

Hi!

11 hours of flight time is no big deal, when coupled with a 12 or 13 hour duty day.

If you disagree, then how about this "better" schedule, because it is less than 8 hours of flying:
7 hours of flying in a two-crew 25 hour duty day. All A-OK by the FAA!

I would welcome 11 hours of flying, in a shorter duty day, as long as multiple TOs/Ls, and late night/early morning penalties.

And what about the FAA allowed unlimited reserve periods? My longest was 240 hours, until being called for a trip!
