Anyway, I will get my coat.
Great post BAP. If only more senior pilots recognised this we might actually get somewhere. Seems as though everyone is willing to jump over one another to make sure they're better off personally. Total lack of unity and thats why the company will continue to do as they please with little/no response from BALPA.

Having flown with a rep recently he raised a good point. How can we ballot to strike when the mentality is as above? Are LH pilots going to walk out over a ridiculous duty rig on SH and totally un-sustainable rosters? At least JSS might see some of the SH summer horror rosters replicated on LH. Then again- it will be junior pilots flying them. Will the guys/girls higher on the list care if they're getting the first choice trips and the days off they want?

N.B not suggesting LH is easier than SH- but as mentioned in post above a lot more protections and better conditions seem to be found on LH.
