Now that is funny! If you haven’t noticed, “we” are not included when the bonuses and profit share are calculated! Swire only for that bounty!
You will however be lauded with some shiny new A321’s to keep you happy and they will throw in a HUD, fuel dump capability and other options they cannot refuse (a’la A50) but have to justify by saying the pilot force “wanted” them!
Enjoy the HUD and your downtrodden peasant life, pilot scum!
The "HUD" was NOT a pilot "wanted" item... It is more or less a "requirement" by the CAAC for new AC if you want to have and/or use them on a "mainland registered" aircraft for airline use. Read into that what you will..
If you doubt this, watch all the shiny new A21's show up with HUD's.. Bet's anyone ??
