BA crew take what the union negotiate for them. Whether it is fair or not has nothing to do with it. If you want to go in to Medical Physics then do so - nobody is forcing you. It's up...

Have been at EZY for over 3 years averaging 640 hours a year - where did the 850 hours a year come from? As far as I am aware line trainers do the most hours here - many over 800 a year.
