BASSA on the other hand have made this whole thing about putting the crew numbers back to how they were. What are their suggestions for making the savings now? Middle East B-2-Bs - don't make me laugh. By their own hubris they are ruling out the solution that most crew would have probably chosen anyway, a constant mantra of normal crew is "we don't mind working a bit harder, we just want to keep our pay" - ie exactly what they have now. Doh!
