Yes it would be interesting to see how many hours some aircrew fly!! I know of guys that are always away and work dam hard and others never seem to be at work at all. I agree pay the aircrew by the amount of hours flown. It has always been an issue with the ground trades but I don't think it would be such an issue if it was what it says FLYING PAY.
It is sad to see all this in house fighting lets face it everyone does a job each as important as the next man.
