I pointed out to Hand Solo on another forum (BA recruit DEPs) that it was my understanding that CAP 371 only allowed for a 1 hour and 30 minute drive to work. When last I worked under CAP 371 this was certainly written into our FDRs.
Hand Solo responded that "he and half of BA" were therefore breaking the rules and so it would appear that lots of you out there are doing the same.
It's no good pointing out the cost of housing in the South East at the subsequent board of inquiry. YOU will personally be held liable.
I have often been fascinated by pilots who drive to work from the likes of Cornwall and then bitch like mad if asked to extend a FDP by 10 minutes!
Mind you, they are then happy to drive back to Cornwall afterwards!!!!!!!
