But BMED do not do any flight over 6.30 hours (that for the Tehran) and most flights are 6 hours or less. Admitedly the FDP can be quite long but within CAP 371.
Add to that that there are no early starts or late finishes from home base and life is not too difficult. Short haul can do similar amounts of flying during a day with numerous sectors along with very early starts and late finishes. A charter flight can be an equally long day to finish where you started!
Obviously with the latest pay deal under discussion we are extremely overworked with a dreadful lifestyle
