little blue,
thing is with crewing is theres no give or take, there always taking but not giving.
they dont help us out in anyway whatsoever.
perhaps if they were we might sell days off more often or go into discretion or help em out if we could? but we dont......if you ask most crew what they feel bout crewing and you'll get the same answer.....
i wouldnt want their job for any money and agree it is a hard job.
and the delay line...i have been delayed by hours in the past and with nothing on the delay line... i'm not saying always as it has saved me some time sitting in the crew room on occassions. but more often than not... although it is getting better... slowly...
anyway rgds
