am wholly in support of the cause but please........ think about the operating crew who would also then get stuck with an unplanned overnight.
Rule 2: always keep building the support so that others are also batting for you!
(certainly gotta break this 3% mentality)
like you said gotta break this 3% mentality, if we succeed all will benefit. No pain, no gain!
The best time to have a stop work meeting in SYD would be 4 hours before curfew, then they all have to overnight
Yes I was only considering the effect it would have on the company, not crew. Anyway I'm in no position to decide when the stop work meetings will happen, I will leave that up to the ALAEA.
But what is better for you crew? a delay (where you might run out of hours) or an overnight which you will know about 4 hours before curfew?
Perhaps some flight and cabin crew might be able to voice some ideas on stop work meetings, defect reporting etc
