...where to start?

I was about to write a reply explaining the process of a turnaround and the scheduled block times versus actual block times and assigned turnaround times in easyJet and airlines in general. Also I thought about summing up as many external factors affecting OTP as I could to make the picture more clear...

Then decided not too, because I have neither time nor patience to try and teach you what you what you will eventually learn on line, Nuageblanc.

Sorry for being condescending but these are the facts.

As for easyJet not being able to afford a strike, well: easyJet is making !!!!!loads of money. LH, BA, and AF etc. still have the long haul to justify their existence (ok, I'm painting a dark picture here). Aviation is changing. What will happen when the LoCo "plague" spreads to long haul? ...you do the math!

From a pilots point of view I think it's a matter of getting what we can now, as the market is in our favor. It changes fast when it does!
