That was who my post was aimed at, at I know BA have plenty of these in their ranks. Others leaping to their own defence are wasting their time here.
And I am retired, reasonably comfortably, so have no interest personally in keeping my job/seniority.
Wealthy pilots, retire now.
OK Roy,
I'll keep it brief - If the sort of pilots you describe hang on after/if VR is offered, denying junior guys jobs and opportunities,
then you might have a point..
