This topic has been brought to the attention of Gp and IFS since the initial exercise started, and what is it with this 16 to a tent, I have shared with 37. I believe the record is 40 to an MFOT, with crews working around the clock shifts and managing up to 120 hours in 21 days. Gps answer to the crew hitting the 28 day hours buffer, was to offer an extension to 150 hours, I believe the crew declined. Whils't we all accept that for operational reasons, we must accept reduced accommodation standards, it is no excuse for driving a coach and horses through the normal peacetime regulations.
