Just perusing the rosters briefly you can see why NR is reluctant to give anything but a token gesture towards credit for BT/DT. The misuse of BT especially is appalling and we see guys working 85 hours with 20 hours of 'freebee' BT. It's still over 100 hours in an aircraft and you arive at your base knackered and dried out - for 5 days off.
I'm surprised the CAD allow it.
1 for 1 is the 'Industry Standard' and it also is a severe disincentive to compiling such dreadful rosters.
Also have you noticed that a lot of people with 14 days leave are still doing 60 hours in the remaining 14 days at work. That's effectively over 100 hours pm too.
Thanks to negotiators too.
