P/T is the answer. The sims could be mitigated by doing 1 OPC/LPC a year (FOQA) Medicals get the Nigels to pay for them (ok might not be liked). The only thing then is any insurance / social costs. But the flexibility of having part time crew you cannot put a price on it -(that's assuming any BA pilot will respect their employer after being treated in my humble opinion - so badly.
