you may not think you're having "a pop" as you put it but the tone and content of your posts contradicts this.

For example
Now learn the difference between PRE and POST rest.
Would you quit implying I need to "learn" things? Come down off your high horse and stop being so bloody patronising!

And whats all this "Fly safe, it saves me work..." and "Fly safe with ya eyes open" crap? Again, nauseating and supremely patronising twaddle. Don't presume to tell me how to fly, thank you very much. Have you any idea how irritating it is to professional pilots when people come out with meaningless drivel like that? It me be your attempt at humour, it may be said with the best intentions, but it just gets right up my nose. What the hell do you think I do when I go flying?

You all know about the little boy that cried wolf.
You seem to have a real thing about this.Go back and read my post and you'll find it all explained.

It may appear that I'm having a personal go at you, but I'm not. It simply concerns me that time and time again this extremely serious issue which is literally destroying many pilots' and their families lives, gets sidelined into some spurious argument such as I believe yours to be.

I'll say it again. The bottom line is that pilots are being made to work to totally exhausting limits week after week, month after month, resulting in serious safety, health and social issues, but no one is listening to their repeatedly voiced concerns, and management don't give a flying ****. Just wait for the hand wringing when it all goes wrong and people lose their lives. And you know who'll get the blame? - yes of course, the pilots.
