ciprian,
I'm not sure which is more likely to result in the thread closing down,your spelling or some of the posts by others.
I did not know that the Americans are interested in our slipping patterns but thanks for the info and it's good to know that the FAA are on top of it.
I still think that the company is not breaking any rules
You have mentioned this a number of times so I'm wondering what your angle is but it's reassuring to know that the company is not doing anything wrong.
The point is that legality is not the issue here but instead simple business.If there is only a 2 hour safety gap between the minimum slip and rostered slip there is not much room for error.I don't think that is their concern though because it is part of a much larger plan to annoy existing Australian crew.
The reality is that now with QCCA crew they don't really want us and cannot wait for us to leave.As such I know that when the question "will I accept a reduced slip" is asked the answer will be an emphatic NO.
