It will always be the case that sides will be taken. This case is no different and JS is by no means sitting well in the 'for' street. The cynics abound. They believe that JS has taken matters to the extreme by wanting so much and giving so little.

As I said in an earlier post I think the chances of employment for the female flying fraternity will be harder as a result of this selfish action. I cannot see managers on the side of women if they think they will be demanding time off for first one child and then another - and even yet another!

In spite of overstress taking the view that a cliche like 'can't have her cake and eat it' is a rant (how can it be.) That is exactly how she comes across. Greedy is another.

Part time pilots is NOT good. For OBVIOUS reasons. One of them is the reason BA stood up - safety. I agree with them.
