outofsynch,
Having stated 2/3 times before that maybe not even 5% of the pilots based on the continent are BALPA members, still nothing is being done to improve this. Having operated around almost all continental bases I can say that the majority of our german/foreign collegues don't even know about BALPA!!
This is not just a wild reason to resign and views of how such an organisation is supposed to run are different and personal.
If BALPA were to introduce a "first year free" subscription we stood a good chance during the upcoming talks.
I have my reasons to leave your have yours to stay, we're still in the same boat.
