Ok but if ba wanted you to fly all the way up to the 900 hours is there anything in the contract to stop them? Or for you to be able to decline without penalty?
Just to draw an anology 740 hours total is a bit like 80% part time. I don't think anyone would volunteer to go full time but keep the part time pay.
The bmi pilots are not responsible to meet any monthly minimum and as an average because of inefficiencies in rostering end up flying in the region of 650 hours or so. Some obviously do more and some less. To continue on this line. Have the redundancies been calculated on pilots available for 900 hours per year or the 740 as per the existing contract?
