Captain Paddy,
The pressure isn't overt, and that's the problem.
Nowhere is it documented that you must do extra sectors if you are tired.
Quite the opposite .On paper.
Deniability.
However, if you refuse,you will receive a phonecall from the chief pilot whilst you are still on the aircraft.
The guy that refused to fly was demoted.
Is that overt pressure or covert?
The main problem we have is the inexperience of our pilots. To a lot of them,Ryanair is their only exposure to the workplace. They presume that this is the way things are in the real world.
