Asturias. What is wrong with Trafalgar advocating that the pilots of CX prepare themselves for what is coming, and devise a strategy to best resist what will surely be the managements wholesale attacks on their conditions? His advice on the matter is sound. He also stated that he felt things would start to turn around soon, and that the company's reaction will be based on opportunism. Surely you know that to be true? If the company wants to attack the bases, then ensure that your only answer is to return on a full benefit package. If the management BELIEVE you are serious in that response, they are far less likely to enact that threat. What is wrong with that advice? Further, the fact that many other pilots are looking for work is irrelevant. CX have to deal with the pilots they have employed now. They can't simply fire them and replace them. Trafalgars advice is pertinent, timely and sound. If you don't think so, then clearly explain why. The ad hominem attacks are frankly reeking of surreptitious management response.
