This will drag on because IAG don’t like losing face and they are well and truly cornered. BA are taking it out on pilots but we are a very united community and we will prevail against their predictable, unlawful, unsafe, and ineffective tactics. Trying to wear pilots down with pay penalties, short-notice roster changes, and and reduced crew compliments on long-haul only reduces safety for customers. It does not dent our will at all. Proper managers could have put this to bed in days.
Proper Managers would have indeed put this to bed in days. The only issue is they all report to Directors / SVP's / Big Cheese's who spend most of their time micro-managing these Managers until they give up. With respect most Nigel's don't have a clue of this world, they just sympathise, put the world to rights in the cruise then go home.
