Strike?

I can see that the game that they play on the A320 is similar to the A330 but with lower salaries.
What I don't understand is the reason why.
You guys have already lower terms and conditions then pilots on the A33.
And you work a lot more than we do. The salary on the A320 is at least 2/3 lower than on the A330, if not lower than my calculations.
So what is the solution? Should we join forces and go on a general strike? Call some press? Ask for labor inspections? Civil Aviation inspections? Should we talk about our ilegal ops and our dangerous flying?

Should a strike work?
The bad publicity would hit them in a such a way that they could turn things around for the better?

Maybe even end the illegal Unpaid Leave that we see every month ?
Get us a legal European contract?
Get us some kind of health insurance? Should we join forces in all fleets and proceed this way, or just talk to management and see if they can do better for all of us before it's too late? I'm on my way out, I have my foot iin another job like all of us, but I wouldn't mind to stay if things get better.

On the A330 we are daily losing pilots and the CP has just announced new routes. Who will fly them for now? His friends?

A strike would be my suggestion, let me hear your thoughts in other fleets.

Truly yours,
