According to the Catering Manager at RAF Brize Norton, rations will cease on Sept 01 2012 for flights of less than 5 hours. This will also count if you aggregate two short flights together i.e. the ground time on a flag stop will not be counted as part of the hours. Get your wallets out AT crews you need to buy yourself some food.
So, doing the maths, reporting 2 hr before chocks plus 2 x 2 hr legs, 11/2 hr for the flag stop plus 30 mins after flight equals an 8 hr day without any rations.....do we still get tea & coffee I wonder?
