Not all bad, means less time for him to be onshore and get into trouble.

It won't be straight 3/3 fortunately! There's a few options on the table. All involve 3 weeks offshore though. Basically our days increase from 146 to anywhere between 161 and 168. Hardly the end of the world given the amount of job losses going around.

If that goes ahead it is a very big cut in the pilot workforce, and probably engineers as well.

Bristows had a big recruitment drive last year and hoovered up lots of engineers so its not good for those just in the door.
