I cant believe how bad things have become since I left. I was in Bucharesti and our 6 on 4 off could 95 % of the time be turned into 6 off 4 on, as normally I had stbys either end of my 4 off which I was normally allowed to commute back to Blighty. If I recall only once did I get to lose a day. That was 9 years ago though, so I guess a lot has changed, we only had 10 aircraft then.
