Heard it all before. Last year DOB was telling us to behave or we could be replaced by people only looking for $1000 a month. Appearently there were plenty of people that would kill for our jobs. First the new EU states had pilots desperate to join, then the Russians were coming, then all the ex-volaire, next the hungarians and now the Americans. Needless to say the promised floods never arrived. The tide has turned and by Jan Ryanair will have serious crewing problems. A clear case of you reap what you sow.
