^ Aircraft crews are required to rest a certain amount of time between flights up to a certain duration. I know it's a thing among the airlines (often you'll have flights delayed and/or cancelled because a planned crew would go over on time), and I can only imagine the military has similar restrictions on flight time.

The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
