A few years ago Stelios conducted an 'Orange' parade outside the EU offices in Brussels. This was to highlight the apparent unfairness of some rules that resticted the trading of ej. Much high level publicity, and perhaps he won some concessions. Other, equally flamboyant, owners have tried and achieved the same. The consequence has often fallen on the flight crew, who's productivity then rose significantly for little personal gain.

Why do the flight crew community not employ the same tatics? There was a photo, on an earlier thread, about pilots protesting in Brussels. May we have a follow up to that campaign?

A splendid start, but is the momentum still alive?

There has been much blah blah here! I heard it for years in the hotel bars, but never in the management meetings. Is this more of the same, or is there some lead in the pencil?
