What concerns me is that there is no system in place to stop pilots positioning on Day 1 in the morning to operate 4 sectors in the afternoon. There is a requirement in the ops manual to position the day before. Pilots are not inclined to do this because they lose a day off and have to pay for another night in a hotel. Obviously it is illigal to position in the morning for a long 4 sector day in the afternoon. Pilots risk their licence by doing so but I am surprised the company is not concerned by the fatigue factor, especially with so many young crews poling around.
