Snigs you are right and I agree but it was the attitude that surprised me. Safety is king and if there is any hint that the rostering of crew may increase risk then it's a problem more than worthy of the attention of the flight safety department especially after the colgan tragedy. Fatigue is a tricky thing to put your finger on but it exists and is a threat to aviation. Tiredness is the real threat with the current flybe rostering practices. Constantly changing shift patterns can leave for the odd day where you are suitably below par and in the dash this is never a good thing
Easyjet, Ryanair and BA etc all have much better patterns than Flybe.
