Decks - we have 10 pilots and 10 rearcrew on average per flight but that allows support for courses, Falklands detachments etc. On an average day a crew will fly 2 hrs day and 2 hrs night although this could be cut down if we were not forced into stats chasing to meet our mandatory requirements.
Does the independent auditor fly with you to check your operational capability and effectiveness or is airborne performance not seen as part of the audit process?

We have pilot and rearcrew instructors on each flight, a squadron trg team for assessment and a SARF standards unit for checking the overall effectiveness on the ground and in the air.
