Just as well you have no skin in the game.
I’d love to be a fly on the wall when you called the BA TC doing your command convex to the 350/380 laddie from your lofty sub 50 on the seniority list having joined Manx in the mid 80s ( just for example).
You do allude to the merger causing issues.
I’d have thought ( having done my homework as instructed) the solution for BA is obvious.
But back to the thread joining BA asap to get on their seniority list would seem prudent if BA is the right fit for you.
tic: I flew a BA flying club Tomahawk in BA livery in 1987 ish can I have a 787 command ?
ST, you're way off the mark, but I take full responsibility for leading you that way. 😉
Your desire to be a fly on the wall is a little disconcerting. If 'Captain Manx' arrived on his 380 command course I would hope that the grown up folk at Big Airways would be welcoming to him/her. The lessons of CRM should put aside any instinct to ward off perceived predators from their close knit family.
Anyway, I can 100% assure you that I have no personal interest in this, but as said before I do have a number of long standing friends at CityFlyer, as I do Mainline. The rumour has found its way into BACF which of course could be the power of PPRuNE.
Off topic, the legendary PA38 Tomahawk with the spin characteristics of a demon, nevertheless a great little trainer.
Yes, anyone thinking of joining BA then definitely do it sooner rather than later. As you can read from this thread, seniority is king.
Whatever the outcome to the rumours, what matters above anything is happiness at work and safe flying.
