Narrative:

Crew fatigue/curfew violation. Both reserve cockpit crew members were released from their early reserve assignment and reassigned to the late reserve assignment the night prior to cover a red eye sequence the following night. I was pro-offered this trip and felt in my comfort zone accepting this reassignment since I had 24 hours to readjust my schedule in attempt to receive the required rest to safely fly this trip. Having flown the same sequence the month prior as a regular line holder with almost the exact same physical conditions, ie, strong jet stream, poor WX at destination, and early arrival curfew to deal with, I can see now stepping back from it that my decision to fly and alertness was clouded by a lack of rest. The net result is that we landed 3 mins prior to curfew in toronto behind a heavy B777 and it didn't dawn on either captain or first officer until after rollout as we were taxiing in that we goofed. After completing the parking checklist and being reminded of my mistake by the agent, I even had difficulty attempting to contact operations with a simple phone call to clear the air. Not to embarrass myself any further now, as a walking zombie, I decided not to hold the rest of the crew up any longer and headed to the crew van and hotel for some much needed rest. I could vent, rant and rave about some casual factors relating to my decision to land that night, but as professional pilots, we've all been there before and such discussions would be better served in the debrief at the appropriate time.
