I suspect they are entitled to an air crew/transport workers visa......If not then most of them won't get visas on time and will end up paying something North of £400 for six months Tourist Visa!
They would not be allowed to work if they arrived on a visit visa (a U.K. Visit Visa is £89 by the way). The crew will not need a visa under this current proposal.
