Wow guys - those roster sure are fun packed aren't they?? Verging on brutal perhaps!!

I have to say all credit to you guys for taking the bull by the horns and embracing the change. I can only echo what others have said - with the previous WW agreement, WW crew would be going apoplectic over such a run of trips.

I have nasty feeling that despite your positive approach, the powers that be in scheduling and crew management are going be pretty obstinate about any flexing of rosters to allow people proper rest. With Willie in the driving seat, its all about max utilisation for min cost. Your only recourse would be crew fatigue.

I vaguely recall Mid Fleet rostering, but it was markedly more in favour of the crew in comparison.

Oh and ignore those crew who give you the cold shoulder - crew by definition (some not all) can be incredibly fickle. Just keep on smiling!
