Trouble at t'mill

Word filters thru that things are set to happen.

New guys are happy cos they have a job, some even have a command course after 6 months. That is because the senior guys are either leaving or finding that they are too tired to accept discretion and delaying flights by 12 hours due no standby. The calibre of RBA is slowly but surely declining.

The net result is that far more experience is leaving out of the back door than is coming in the front. The danger is that the equally tired guys in between dare not say no and are "pressing on" with min fuel sometimes when airmanship might suggest another course of action to be appropriate.

Be careful out there. It could be my family you are carrying.

Back to bed for another min rest long haul.
