Why would you know anything about a sensitive incident that happened years before you joined the company?You're hardly likely to be told about it on the company induction day.
As for the T+G I know loads of pilots ( me included)who left Balpa after the last debacle similar to the one that appears to be developing now- many of them found the T+G to be good value.You're not likely to have flown with too many guys that are in that category, are you?
You're right I don't know you but I'm going by what you write here. I joined easy when they had five aeroplanes so I reckon I have the first hand experience to back up my assertions. I've worked for more airlines than you have and in some areas eg training, easy compared favourably to others but in the rostering/ crewing dept it was the worst by far.
Different bases and types can make all the difference at easyJet and I believe that is largely why you have seen one side of it so far, many others have seen the dark side too.
