True, but only until the A350 replaces the A380 and A330. It’s just a matter of time before this happens and then you can kiss goodbye a great award. Plenty of Asian carriers using the A350 on 10 hour routes. If there was ever a kind of flying that deserves proper overtime credits, it has to be 20.6 hour stick sectors! And we don’t even know the health side affects of these long sectors yet. They have also conceded that the project data so far is not mature and more studies are required on the fatigue side so why are we even talking about pilot pay rates yet!!?? Just walk away from the deal and let them keep negotiating by themselves as they have already conceded is the case. Vote NO, otherwise go and buy heaps of rectinol.
