I also work for the white hatters based in LGW. 414 block hours a year flown for the last two years. Never worked harder than 625 hours a year,only because the powers that be can't pull their thumbs out and sort out crewing/rostering ect. I spend all my time taxi's or hotac. Not a sensible use of a very expensive resource. It must be all my fault.I must remember to ask for a paycut.
