Be very carreful when making rash statements about sacking 'old hags' and 'old' contract' cabin crew. You may have a point but......
How many 'old contract' 'high earning' pilots are in BA today??
Plenty!
How many guys and girls out there with their nice new ATPL's who would pay for their type ratings and jump at the chance of working for BA for less than half current rates?
Plenty!
Think about it.
