Both employers want the secondees back in London..BACX want to secure jobs for its pilots, BA are desperately short of pilots at LHR However it is BALPA that tries to secure slots on RJ for secondees! At the expense of BACX pilots..
We all feel for individuals from both companies being affected by the BP05. We don't agree a one way traffic is a solution..Nor operating a mixed fleet with two groups on very different T'&C's. A compromise should accommodate both pilot groups. Balpa have the power and means to help sort this. As I mentioned above both managements want the same solution..
It doesn't appear that Balpa is going to change its attitude regarding lost BACX jobs and Commands..So come on New Road. Show you will help BACX in future and get some bodies back/down to LHR. Leave those who's lives are in the regions to get on with it! How about getting BACX seniority no. within BA so pilots can bid to go to LHR if they so wish??
