Boys and girls. Calm Down ! The bean counters bottom line is what is best for BA and then BACX. Taking into account what is / has taken place elsewhere on the network it can only be a matter of time before all of the 'gha' functions are passed to a third party. This will be neither mainline or BACX, because in the effort to delay union confrontation at LHR / LGW and effect greater flexibilty and practice and safe money it is only the regions of the UK that are left to cut. I wish I am proved wrong.
Having spent time training mainline staff early this year at MAN I was dissapointed at the mainline attitude to our BACX colleagues. Seems the best idea of all is to transfer all 64,000 of us to BACX contracts, the company would be in profit overnight.
