You obviously have no idea of longhaul flights, jet lag and what a few sleepless nights in a cockpit do to you.
Ah, skypointer the expert, talking again. Sure, you´re right, most of us (but not all of us) don´t know much about flying long range, but why does that all over sudden make you the expert about regional flying ? Your comparison: ´we in OC 2 fly more blockhours then you in OC1´is really pathetic. You can fly ZRH-MUC and ZRH SZG every day all month long, be very tired, and ´only´ end up with 40-50 blockhours. At the same time you can fly 2x ZRH-LAX in the same month with roughly the same number of blockhours. I´m not saying that long range is easier, nor am I saying that short range is tough and we should have the MD11 salary. I´m merely saying that we all fly what we have to fly in order to build a network that passengers like. The amount of blockhours at the end of the month does not matter. Are you one of those little children who always think that more/bigger=better.


One of the first things they tell you in lawschool is, that the law has nothing to do with right or wrong or common sense. Its just a set of rules and there are many ways to interprete them. If our dear amateur court publishes its decision we will see what happens.
One of the key elements of s free society is that there is a constitution and that people respect the law. Why do you keep on refering to the Court of Arbitration as an "amateur court ?" You don´t seem to have much respect for your colleagues, the company you work for, the law, nor for the official legal institutions in your country. Welcome to Banana Republic Schweiz ?
