In essence, next time govt needs flight crew to assist the country bring back medical supplies from abroad...nobody will come forward. Lol
Seems you want to blame the Government on these one's mendacity. This virus will spread because of people like these wicked, selfish and stupid bunch. Are you not witnessing patients and their families, withholding information about travel history
It's not right. Call a spade a spade
If they won't come forward for yet another job like this, so be it.

With all the billions this people have collected they couldn't provide a better quarantine center. A 5 star hotel would have been better for this purpose.Sanwo Olu na scam.

They should have put the safety of their families and the nation at large first before their personal comfort.

That’s gross negligence! The airline should sack the bastards!

OP, I don't understand. 17 pilots and flight attendants brough 14 Chinese.

It's possible, a local flight usually have 6 crew members, whereas a 14-hour trip to and from China would require at least 4 pilots, 10 crew members, health officials would have to been on board also to monitor the supplies that they brought in with the Chinese

It's not a mistake. Pilots.
You may confirm with Emirates using the stated flight as an example. It's a 14hr flight with 4 pilots on duty at a time. Some pilots don't get to "work" all through the trip.

The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health, Abdullahi Mashi, confirmed the development but noted that the cabin crew members who left the quarantine centre had returned to the facility, saying “they are back now.”

Hope they have not infected their family members

This is funny, infact everything about this country is funny! Why put two people in a room? Are they students? Why not in a hotel? And why were they not informed they would be quarantined on arrival. You see? These people are not organized at all causing the nation so much embarrassment.

Nigeria government are the most useless government in the world, how can you pair two Chinese in one room apartment that's nonsense, give every one of them self contained rooms, Chinese don't joke with their comfort, you invited them for a big task so make them comfortable. Shame on Lagos state government and Nigeria government for this international embarrassment

You don't understand.

The Chinese have been quarantined in Abuja.

It is the Nigerians who flew to bring them to Nigeria that refused to share apartments. Some of these Nigerians escaped from the quarantine centre and went home to their family.

In situations like this, safety should come first over comfort. But these crew members went home in spite of just coming from a high-risk country. Just imagine the number of people whose health they might have put into jeopardy because of their selfishness.

Aviation IS a confusing business indeed.

But 17 crew for LOS-PEK return is actually very correct.

Considering the aircraft and crew never slept in China, this is how they used 17 people.

Remember that all they did was refuel and take payload in China before return to LOS via ABV. So going, they needed 4 pilots as they stopped in the UAE before continuing to Beijing.

This made it a less than 10 hour flight, needing only 2 pilots per leg.

Cabin crew ratio for flight is maximum 50 pax to 1 crew, so you need at least 6 cabin crew for a 300 seater jet as used.

Empty or not, these crew must be present if the airplane is operating as a scheduled/licensed operation.

However, for reasons of efficiency, I imagine they were on board but "off duty" since the cabin was empty.

Ground engineer(s) will be picked from either Lagos or the UAE since both are online stations for the airline.

However, they MUST have at LEAST one engineer on board since China is not a normal destination for them.

So just the empty flight to China needed at least 11 people.

Coming back is a more expensive operation.

14 hour direct flight means a SEPARATE 4 pilots, as the earlier 4 have not fulfilled mandatory legal rest periods.

This makes for a total of 8 pilots for the whole journey.

Remember those cabin crew? Now they are on duty, as the Chinese doctors are now on board as part of the payload.

Ground engineer(s) are also required aboard in case the aircraft has to land in an unfamiliar airport.

And now that there is also cargo on board, I suspect they may have needed a loadmaster.

Assumed breakdown:
LOS- SHJ
2 pilots
6 CC(off duty)

SHJ-PEK
2 pilots
6 CC(off duty)
2 ground engineers

Outbound: 12

PEK-ABV
4 pilots
6 CC(on duty)
2 ground engineers
1 loadmaster

Inbound: 13

Considering that the cabin crew are the same in all legs, 19 people could actually be involved as seen above.

Hope you are clear now.
