Speed Check- you have an extraordinary nature! Without responding to insults, I will just state the facts:. . The BA pilot workforce agreed to fund the BA F/Es increased severance package above the new standard reduced package to the previously agreed arrangement cancelled subsequent to 9/11. . BALPA has not been greEdy! Considering we have taken the standard 2 year pay packages for umpteen years, along with all other staff, and have accepted BA's shenanigans with Scope and other agreements (Classic/777 bunks to name but two), I would say BALPA has been very co-operative.. . This is not the thread for you to air your prejudices. This BA pilot offers the personnel involved sympathy and best wishes.
