The only denial I see is what may happen to peoples pension funds if something isn't done to rid BA of the dreadful inefficiency that plagues the business- bus drivers who hide in their buses reading newspapers, only do one way trips, loaders clocking on and off when they aren't anywhere near an airport, that apparently banish any supervisory people from the premises, cabin staff that can only do one or two flights a day when the competitors do four, and still get paid more than the copilots.
The pilots have delivered all the productivity asked of them. BA pilots work harder than comparable airlines- many are right up to as near mandatory annual limits as you can get. Their pay has been benchmarked in line with other UK airlines. I think the pilots have little to fear. Everybody else should be quaking.
