Oh darn it you caught me out there.............. Yes I am a journalist. I work for the Daily Telegraph and I am doing an article on RAF Vs Civvy Loadmasters and wether or not the RAF should just put movers on the aircraft and save money.
Sorry echo5 I am not sure that would make the front page ahead of the Isreali conflict. Just asking a few questions that no one seems able to answer.
Do civvy Loadmasters have to abide by CAA Crew duty hours?
Do they always fly with the load?
Do they have to do the IATA Carriage Of Dangerous Goods By Air course?
Who regulates them within the company?
Do they earn flight pay like the pilots?
dionysius are you ex RAF? Were you a movements operator?
