So now I basically rework the breaks every leg after the IRO has left.
So beware out there if the IRO figures out break times from the Howgozit - and not from the progress page.
Just an FYI.
LOL.. (laughing with ya, not at ya!)
I've kinda seen that too. I "review" the break plan too.. Only had to fix it a couple of times, and was only a few minutes. Try to be "diplomatic (for a German NewYorker!)" by asking the Captain if it's ok to get back so little before landing, as the break times are off..
Once he had me adjust it.. the other time HE said he would just return early.
All good.. learning continues~
