Narrative:
Scheduled for less than 9 hours flying in 24 hour period on an 8 hour reduced rest. Scheduling reassigned my last leg to 2 legs of flying. Afterward, I realized the new legs put me over 9 hours of flying in a 24 hour block after a reduced rest. Afterward, I verified this with scheduling. He verified the mistake. The scheduling program (flight trac) never flagged the problem even after re-entering the information. I was simply too tired and motivated to get home to want to doublechk scheduling's math. The previous day was a 15 hour 50 min duty day to a reduced rest.
