Flying 100 hours in a fortnight?????? Thats the biggest rubbish I have ever seen. It is impossible!!! Do you have ANY idea how long the duty time would be? I dont think so.

We fly an averege of 3-5 days a week between EDI and LCY. 2 shift in any day are only one time there and back, then off.

SOMEONE IS LYING!!!!!!! BIG TIME!

Our boss (Chief pilot) has said: If the pilot are to tired to operate safely all they have to do is say so and they will be taken off that duty. I has happened a couple of times.

If someone is out to damage the company by lying, then they should have a bit consideration for the rest of us who actually still happen to enjoy our job. To much damage could cause a company to go under and we would all be out of jobs.

If you are not happy then gett the f*** out. Don't make everyone else misserable with your constant complaining!

It is true that the day can be a bit long at times, but we are all within the legal duty times as well as the flight time.

It is part of the job. Aviation has always been and will always be unpredicteble.
