30% - 40% that is a huge difference. Reflects the quality of the "patriots only" news which requires little to no fact checking.

30-50% is the pay rise of upper management.

30-40% pay cut is a understatement, factor in inflation and the three hundred odd percent increase in property prices since the GFC - it's more like a 70% pay cut truth be known...

How much can they see if we accidentally set the parking brake and then back off again? Easy to gain a few minutes on the bus at least...

Could always just play the HKA game of Green Dot from Auckland with the CP on board... Always enjoyed that story.

Well they had to spend all the money they saved on staff salaries on something.

It definitely hasn't been spent on aircraft presentation because I was in the toilet of one of the A350s recently and the once-cream coloured sink in the washroom is now a nice shade of brown. I mean, it's always possible that it's not the wear on the cheap fittings and actually a mainlander who has shat into the basin and then proceeded to work said **** into the grains of the plastic with very course sandpaper.

It sounds like threats directed at pilots yet again . There is a very simple way to fix it revert to scheduled or actual flight time whichever Is the greater .
problem solved I should be in management
