It's about one first return a month, when we opened a new office abroad I managed to accumulate just over 15,000 tier points in one year! I am just short of GFL but it seems I will only be making silver when my new year starts!

I'm not sure your math works. A F a month, gets you about 6000.

24 * 420 = 10080 (1 per calender month)
24 * 4 * 42 = 40320 (1 per 4 weeks monthly)

I'm doing the maths here also, even is he does a double legger in F its 900 TPs per return leg, so 10800 in a one year period. So if he does 17 double legged flights in F in a year its doable. One return in F every 3 weeks.

That's a really good point, Are you asking about GGL and GFL or a person having GFL and GGLFL
I assume if one is GGLFL then they would automatically be GFL therefore due to the order GGLFL would show.
As for GGL and GFL, I would assume GGL as they would be higher in order however if you clicked on the icon it would show the profile.
As a side note, I don't think many crew know what all these terms actually mean.

Interesting! It's the first time I learn GfL and GGLfL are shown on the iPad! Do they show both on the passenger list (ie the list ordered by seat number) as well as the seat map, or only when accessing the profile? A few CSDs showed me in the past. I would see the Gold card with "GL" on the passenger list view and the "GL" label on the seat map (which I believe both identify GGLs). As you can tell I am somehow intrigued by what info is available on the iPad (pure trivial curiosity!)... Out of curiosity, how is the icon/label different from the "GL" used for GGLs?

They should not be showing you due to data protection. You are right about the GL on the seat map.
Like I said I'm not 100% because I don't have lots of time to faff around with the PIL before a flight.
The icon is just GL with the crown for both GFL / GGLFL and will show which tier when clicked onto profile. The GGL icon shows without entering the profile.
I've heard that all Flyertalkers have a bright yellow warning! icon
