My tongue was firmly in my cheek. I wasn’t having a go at you or your experience or background.
I was making the point that this attitude from management has been the way for at least the last 20 years, really since the acquisition of Impulse.
This idea of divide and conquer, and pitting different pilot groups against one another, has been the hallmark of the Dixon/ Joyce eras, and now the Hudson tenure provides no evidence of intent to change that direction, despite the nice words to that effect.
The fact that the airline and its various incarnations through multiple subsidiaries continues to function is a testament to the crew (tech and cabin) and ground staff that continue to turn up and do the job to the best of their ability.
This is despite the best efforts of management to demonstrate their contempt for those very staff at every opportunity, despite the possible consequences you described above.
