Virgin Atlantic pilots consider strike over fatigue
Paxboy, can't match your length of service. I only did 43 years of which 39 was at the pointy end. What one sees here is current SOP(Standard Operating Procedure) and has been during my entire aviation career. Unless fully connected in all the accepted areas, one goes only so far. Real, appropriate talent available in the airline industry does not get into the controlling top-management. Never has. Never will.The result is what you see at VS and, probably, all over civil aviation.
Even got to be a member of the Travel" Lodge" to get my "Frequent user"- New Year deals !
