F10....you're just not that bright are you? I wasn't 'comparing' bases to HK. I was making the point that there is a complete disregard for fatigue in our rostering. As for 'sickness' on a base....it's because CX insists on manning the base to minimum levels. We do get sick once in a while...! Anyway, back to the main point: Having someone on a base do regional patterns completely out of body clock is asking for a serious incident. Most HK pilots who get sent to a base still end up working with a 4 man crew....
