WE THE SAAB PILOTS FROM BASLE ARE SWISS
Sound like : We the people of los Estados Unido de América.
Nice letter of independence. But whom does it serve? And who's to blame for this situation in the first place? My guess: ALL involved. Starting at the former Swissair managers (a bunch of tarts with overblown cojones) all the way to Crossair pilot representation, then and now (a bunch goody of two-shoes with HUGE chips on their shoulders) IMHO.
As Kapt. Ive said, take it like a man – the reaming only hurts in the beginning – and on that note, let me express my sympathy to all foreigners that were dismissed solely on that criteria. However, and as sad as it is to see how pilots are being treated by their ever so ignorant management, it is too late to defend those that are gone and those that will go.
It is done!!
Try finding a new job, get a type rating on Scarebuses and Vomit Comets, get out of there, and try to get it on! Smell the coffee! Get a hint: They Don’t Want You! – They don’t even like you! Its Swissair ermm… Its Swiss!
WE ARE SWISS!
Jawohl mein Führer!
