No it's not the truth, though some of the contributers are painting a dire picture. Frankly, IMHO after 17 years on widebodies at LHR, is that you get out what you put in. If you want to sit on your backside on the Flight deck and grumble about everything guess what, they won't come out "to play". OTOH if you make just a tiny effort to show some spark of interest in something other than Bidline and Pensions you might get some interest in return....heck I even managed to get 12 of a jumbo crew out on an Eastern Seaboard nightstop a few weeks back and we moved on to a room party later, whilst of course repecting all the appropriate bottle and throttle rules

Now if a knackered old

like me can generate some social goings on anyone can.
Must go, got to get tonights social event organised..we'll all have a beer for you
