EASA FTL study already neglected by politicians

After a thorough study by EASA which ended in the following report the Minister for Transport in Denmark has already neglected the conclusions as "we already have a set of rules that works well and therefore it is not a matter of haste to implement further rules".

This is after implementing subpart Q to the letter without making any further restrictions on any parts therein, so we now have, from the operators point of view, the most forgiving rules regarding flight time limitations which the companies as usual use as a target instead of an absolute maximum.

The conclusion by the minister is "the road ahead must be joint EU rules so I will put it forward in the EU, but I cannot as Danish Minister of Transport, guarantee that the report will not end up in a drawer somewhere".

Thank you very much for the great effort you as responsible for air safety in Denmark put into this.
