I wouldn't be at all surprised to find the VCCs are offered the opportunity to fly as crew again in the future, reintroducing the historic role of 'support crew'. With a thousand trained volunteers there'd be no need to carry the extra heads that IFCE currently has to cover for the absenteeism spikes around school holidays, Wimbledon and Ascot. BA can simply offer the volunteers an occasional jolly on overtime and allowances to provide a break from the day job.
