Tandemrotor,
Thanks for taking the time to participate in this thread.
I wasn't aware from my intial posting that I was looking for anyone to blame. In fact, I'm not at all into the blame game.
I realise I have a good job and that in the present climate that is an advantage I have over many other pilots here and abroad.
Whilst I do not control the way this thread develops, and therefore you may think this is about blame, my intial intention was to rectify a basic misconceptions about BACX T&Cs which I have encountered in some mainline pilots.
The thread has become confrontational because a blame game based on past negotiations and activities has surfaced. I was hoping the thread might become more constructive and address how errors of the past might be rectified and a mutually beneficial solution found. Maybe that will happen, once all parties have vented their frustration and anger at each other?
So moving on. I stand corrected on the future ability of B.A mainline to bid onto the RJ. I have checked this info and I have heard two diametrically opposite answers on this particular fact, therefore I will err on the side of caution and agree with your assertion. I apologise for not checking my facts more correctly from the outset.
Do you disagree or challenge any of the other points I make?
I will certainly address them.
Carnage matey:
I haven't forgoten you. I have most of the answers at hand, but I'm not in a position to set out my response here until tomoorrow.
safe flying to all.
