The continued snide references to Luxembourg are childish in the extreme. Were AIPA not engaging with other IFALPA members they'd be criticised from pillar to post for not trying to learn from others- and you'd be leading the charge Rated De. With AIPA having attended such a meeting you now imply criticism of AIPA with these inane asides about lines in the sand being in Luxembourg.

AIPA doesn't always get it right. However the criticism to solution ratio on PPRUNE is running about 1725:1. There is zero short IR term fix to the issues faced by AIPA members. There is zero chance that AIPA can even hint to crews about a withdrawal of labour as that'd be nailed very quickly in the FWC and AIPA (and individual members) held liable for damages. AIPA telegraphing long term IR strategies would be bloody stupid and would again attract criticism.

If whilst on time off at home crew decide of their own volition not to assist with crewing shortages then good luck to them. I can understand why busy and tired crew are starting to prioritise their quality of life ahead of a few extra $$$. If that helps the long term IR strategy then so much the better. It's certainly going to help a lot more than the same bunch of people spouting the same tired lines on PPRUNE.
