Excrab,
The Balpa figures are out of date - check out the PPJN City Express figures -
Capt top £59,229; (£60,117 as of April 2005)
Capt base £51,153; (£51,920 as of April 2005)
This works out something like 4.7% more than Flybe Jet scale at base in April. So to get the Jet up to 5% more than City Express like the Dash, the jet would need a 10% pay rise and the Dash 1%
Somehow I cannot see this happening - indeed there are still CC members that still feel that the Dash should get the SAME pay as the jet.
Thanks anyway for voting No to the last offer but personally I don't think it should be dealt with in that way. It should not be left up to one fleets vote against another. They should simply look at what each A/C's average European pay scale is and try for a little above that.
If they don't sort this out soon there will no-one left to vote anyway on the 146.
