Management listens on safety, nothing else

Fatigue reports get acknowledged and then closed with no change. Safety reports are handled properly, so it is clearly a crewing problem rather than a culture problem, but that does not help when you are on your fourth…

Pros

Modern fleet, well maintained.

Cons

Roster changes constantly, right up to the day.
