Nice work AOAE, of course it's more fatiguing having a whole extra day off to rest after a 3 man long haul. The sleep expert said it is so it must be true.

This whole thing is going to be a pineapple shafting on a scale never seen before.

I don't care much for your posts.

But on this I agree with you and is already being talked about on the Open Threat post.

However this type of behaviour by a union chairman requires its own thread. Just a shame you xwnd had to start it. Anyway you still in Penang being investigated for impersonating a pilot?

Have the sleep experts ever flown a CX roster or done 3 man long haul? They are just quoting theory from a text book, we are actually doing it.

Why not do 3 man long haul turnarounds then? Your body clock wouldn't shift at all.

Looks like you've taken my suggestion of easing into it, pretending to be on the team, then shifting the debate seriously. Bravo

One part of the AOA enforces something that delays our career progression, while the other part of the same AOA helps the company with the thing we were fighting against. This must be some kind of world first. Other unions and organizations will make case studies of this for generations to come. It's so unbelievable all you can do is laugh.

We now get to work harder and have less rest, and you'll have to do it at a lower rank and payscale for longer.

There is little actual evidence of delayed progression of any substance beyond the heresay on the flightdeck.

I think the people requesting 3 man trips to LHR and back need to be tarred and feathered. Selfish idiots.
