This must surley be the quote of this century from autoflight,
If you are a contract pilot, it is unrealistic to think that your operator / agency will comply 100% with the contract.
How would the recruiting agency or the contractor react if the pilots were to tell them the same thing? "there will be someone to take your place.
Ans so in effect, autoflight, who would appear to represent one of the recruiting agencies is effectively saying that they are willing to knowingly reduce industry standards -
"Even a whimp can insist on:
On time salary
Comply with duty & rest periods
Insist on current Ops Manuals and airways manuals, and see how long your contract lasts!".
Might we expect to see these same agencies featuring a lot more in accident investigations with that anti-safety attitude?
Possibly a new slogan for them - Breaking down the barriers.
