CAPT, you sound like DY management:
"the lovely , but expensive contract... industry leading T's & C"....
Are you even aware of the cost of living in Scandi-land? Working 900 hrs a year on average (or less) pay is hardly industry leading.. You´re probably better off flying t-props up north. Having said that, the alternatives to the present contract are sadly even worse.
Oh and btw, who are you kidding, of course it matters who´s to blame!
