Fuel economy and pilots reward.
Gentlemen,
One of the airlines in this country decided to initiate a "fuel economy program" based on pilot participation in which the target level of economy will be evaluated on a monthly basis and pilots will (or not) be rewarded on a six month basis. Of course this subject is being criticized by many and supported by others. Main concern is a break on the safety commitment as many pilots could be more driven to save costs. There is also a serious concern regarding ranking the pilots by their personal "performance". I would very much appreciate your thoughts on this matter as I am not aware about similar programs being implemented in other airlines.
