Indeed, very good for the FUA crew, at least they have a few priorities straight!
The meaning of "quality of life" is something that very few in the UK will ever understand.
Brits can be just as superficial as Americans when it comes to money and will bend over backwards for a few extra quid: sell back leave days, fly 900 hours/year with 20 minute turn arounds and eat disgusting greasy crew meals
after the crew have done their service.
