Some good stuff here for those searching for first hand information. I'm not one of them, but one thing caught my attention:
You can be rostered for a 5 night overnight in AMS from the LCY base but of course with the new AMS base on the cards these will significantly reduce which has pissed a lot of people off who commute to the LCY base and who depend on the overnight allowance for mortgages etc.
Who the #%$€¥ buys a house based on getting overnight allowance to cover a mortgage?! Crazy world.
Good luck.
