Dear aviators,

Few quick questions,

If Ryanair management know they can treat their pilots like !!!!, what use would a union realistically do? The pilots going on an actual strike seems too far fetched. Could MOL replace his pilots (including more senior pilots) quickly if he needed? Even though i hate to admit it- bringing in new first officers every 6 months and booting out the ones with 500 hours is brilliant business! The pilot wage bill at Ryanair must be insignificant compared to other airlines. Why would MOL and Ryanair stop this dirty tactic? It does not seem illegal- plus I am sure the European commission would not give a !!!! as well, they probably think they have bigger problems to solve, how far wrong am i? Look forward to your replies guys!

Kind Regards,

Cptdivz.
