but rather the alarming and sad lack of oversight by the regulators and authorities. They let AOC holders get away with forcing pilots into zero-time pseudo self-employed/entrepreneurial external workforce contracts,
The CAA is a government organisation. Air Law is national law. EASA is now law in EU. The UK government has publicly denounced the use of zero hour contracts in 21st century, especially by those companies making handsome profits and in no way shape or form in a vulnerable state. Yet here we see, for years, right under their noses, companies increasingly using such contracts. Some government ministers even publish the fact they travel on LoCo carriers. How daft is that for a philosophy? They should publicly declare they will never set foot on an a/c where zero hour contracts are in force. That would be credible, not this blind eye action.
