There is little point in (my) continuing this discussion since yet again N_N has proved unable to conduct a discussion in 'normal' ways.

Sheikh - I just hope 'your' captain thinks this through carefully. Management have teeth and BALPA are noted for occasionally only supporting cases that they think will succeed. Ask the DanAirs who got 5 figure settlements from BA when BALPA said there was no case, if you are in doubt.

to change a route schedule drastically (enforced by CAA) as the flights were always going into discretion, i.e. could be seen to be "planned" to operate into discretion.
- for MJ - you may be thinking about BA LGW and the TLV out-and-back. The CAA said 30% DRs or more and it has to change. It did . I have a letter which was 'supported' by the CAA declaring that discretion is to be considered a normal and expected part of FDP. Don't have it to hand, sadly. It is always how the company 'expect' it that is the rub.

let the big boys discuss this sensibly
- let's hope, eh?
