This was not a victory of sorts.
This was a big financial blow to the airline concerned, and a kick in the teeth to the malicious management handling the case on behalf of said company. Perhaps sackings will follow.
It will hopefully set a precedent for other pilots to seriously consider legal action against their employers, where disgraceful and illegal behaviour occurs. Especially as regards fatigue, tiredness, exhaustion, and other common side-effects of today's crew planning.
The original story is by no means over yet....
