Stand by lengthened !!!!

Now Flybe are really taking the p*ss,

Not only are Aprils pay discussions still being dragged out, blue skies scheduling seems to have been put on permanent hold, amongst other ways that Flybe are trying to break the pilots to a new low, but now;

Flybe have now told BALPA that stand bys will now be lengthened by 2 hours to 10 hours max." This will cause less disruption to the crews" - yes because we will have less time off.
Crewing will stand you down early if not required, but the duty hours will be recycled later in the month, hence more instability.
This will also mean that disruption payments will be harder to get as the original duty hours will be longer.

This has been forced through with no consultation!!
Wait to see what the next new low will be........
