"The reason why they chose to do the same job for less was that it was paying more than the same job they were already doing. Probably the same reason the A scalers took the jobs as well"
Freehills, that is a very astute comment. Now tell me, how could an A scale pilot prevent someone from joining on a much better package than they already had? They can't. It is completely ludicrous to suggest it was the fault of the A scale pilots that many joined the lesser B scale. The reality is it is simpler to blame someone else.
