Glo, I call BS on that. Factoring has been here for a long time, if I remember well, it came into effect shortly after we started more ULR flying, guess around 2005/2006??
Also, we were flying to an overtime threshold of 92 hours since 2008, not 88. (both thanks to TCAS/talking horse duo)
Also, India night turns were never 3 man ops or layover. Just 2 boys in the middle of the night, there and back.
Anyway, I can't be bothered with whining about how bad it is on one fleet and how good it is on the other. Apart from the new boys on the A380, we all did our fair share of horrible hours. For those who do like to whine, please use facts and not made up alternative stats.
