Those unfortunate to be made CR are understandably angry/sad/ bitter but it's no excuse for pilots who joined on pp34 to stir the sh1t in this dangerously divisive way.
There was no vote to " keep" pp24.......
Whilst it would have been great to increase pay across the board, inc new joiners, that has NEVER happened in my 31 years. We are fighting an ongoing deterioration in comp and conditions. eg The cadet scheme. The company is competing against low cost and others where new pilots pay for their rating and their uniforms. And we have people here complaining that whitetails are on a slightly lower salary............... FFS get real!!!
The goal for the last 20 years has been to get them on the MSL , rather than a separate (low cost) alternative.
eg.. Short Haul LGW... those guys are on the MSL and, despite some protestations, they will be treated by MSL seniority.
The alternative was a different "airline", on lower t&c's, and they'd probably all already be unemployed.
