very costly resources, the aircrew,
I belive the fact the schedule GF produces is a heap of cr@p that makes it a costly operation, not the aircrew!
Look at the ratio of block-hours to flying-hours; it is garbage and that is a major factor in GF's unprofitability.
Perhaps that's where these new boys should look more closely.
But then again, I think from what I have heard the Chief would have to bend over double and look up his behind to find the culpit(s)!!
