Here we had a wonderful business opportunity to negotiate some better options for ALL VA pilots.
And now with out any sign of a professional strong union the way forward is dead .
Well done , really.
So what's your solution? Put your name to a letter calling for a boycott of 5 day trips? or just get on here and whinge about "the union"? Put up or shut up. But before you put up, you may want to take the advice of the union that you disparage, and probably aren't even a financial member of, and understand that any organising of pilots to boycott 5 day trips would be illegal and unprotected industrial action. Individuals can choose to refuse 5 day trips under the VA EA, but no-one, even the union can call for a boycott.

The union you so disparage has a plan, a legally enforceable plan, but if you're not a member then **** off.
