Hi boy, our smiley sure has green eyes! Reptilian logic!

As for FlyingSpanner, no one begrudge the mechanic's ( oops, LAME's ) eligibility for a good seat for rest. In fact the engineer should rightly be classified as a " flight crew " ( on GD, etc ) and be allocated a horizontal rest bunk so that he can discharge his duties after flight. Likewise, the pilots should equally, if no more, be required to be provided suitable rest ( I stress again, not just only sleepin quarters ) facilities.

Any arguments against providing pilots with the best rest available are just arsey logic by green eye monsters!
