Pretty short post there. No problem, if it was correct.
Are you suggesting that late starts, unavailability due 24 hrs off, etc. are not happening AT ALL? Have never happened AT ALL? Loss of coverage due ONE GUY going sick doesn't happen AT ALL, EVER? If their crew situation was as you have described, it wouldn't.
Your statement is not correct AT ALL, in fact (not opinion) as these things are, whilst not frequent, certainly not uncommon. Two years ago there were at least 8 B200 crew at Pearl's Darwin base. Now there are 5.
This is not a flame, but I feel I must respond to your post. Perhaps you could give some more detail, so I can understand why you would make such a statement?
To be specific, I am talking about Pearl - and I think most others here are too, though "NT Aeromed" (thread title) could be RFDS Central...
