Nice posting hec7or.
We do realise though that it is only a very small minority (though very vocal!) who are so anti BACX. The thread should be about abuse of a captains right to exercise (or not) discretion. Smug comments from those with elevated T+Cs who will never be put into the same situation as the unfortunate and highly respected lady in question have sadly brought this into the usual 'them and us' slanging match.
Let's not forget we are supposed to be professionals ( and perhaps even mature with it).
Let's forget the 'them and us' and replace it with 'WE'. WE should be fighting for one another. Divide and conquer is such an old tactic, yet is still being used as ground rule 1 for our management.
