What is, in accordance with the relevant provisions of Regulation No 1408/71 and Regulation No 883/2004, in its two versions, the social security legislation applicable to flight and cabin crew of an airline, established in one Member State, where that crew is not covered by E101 certificates and where that crew works for 45 minutes per day in premises intended to be used by staff, known as the ‘crew room’ which that airline has in the territory of another Member State in which that flight and cabin crew reside, and, for the remaining working time, that crew is on board that airline’s aircraft?
