Quite so Mr Angry.

Within BA CX you have to look at this latest affront to the pilot community against a background of:

Apalling roster instability

Very high levels of disruption

Crew shortages due to lack of forward planning

Morale sub zero

To make matters worse the company seriously proposed that any wage increase should be paid for by cutting disruption payments and Mr DF has been on the phone to just about every available pilot to try to pursuade him/her to give up leave!!

An operation in crisis is hardly going to be helped by resorting to intimidation of pilots to fly beyond prescribed hours of safety.
