Charterguy, you and your friends have less intelligence than the monkeys you descended from. Pay peanuts eh? Did you bank over £5000 last month?
You and your ilk think you know it all, in fact your ignorance outshines your idiocy.
Stable rosters, excellent pay, every night at home. No wonder FR attract so many ex long-haul Captains from flag carriers who have had enough of squatting in mouldy hotels around the world.
Some people seem to think that FR do everything differently to other airlines, they don't. They operate Boeings the Boeing way. Indeed, with the largest fleet and the most sectors of any airline in Europe, around 1000 landings a day, they would be foolish to try to operate any other way. Why does that make FR inferior to any other airline? Beats me!
Riding on to an unmarked pavement area at an unfamiliar airport seems a trivial error when compared to what has happened in other airlines in the past. Jumping on the FR bashing bandwagon seems the most popular pastime for some of the posters here, how sad is that?
