well I posted the original so I say again...
I heard a rumour that a pilot has left Balpa and joined the Transport and General Workers Union. They only charge 5 quid a month and provide a similar degree of legal protection which appears the main reason people join Balpa.
Now that Delta pilots have achieved a 23% pay raise and Balpa are currently in talks with my firm for 6% are they value for money?
I don't know the details of DanAir but I've worked with pilots who felt they weren't very well served.
Is there anybody who has joined the TGWU or would any Balpa reps care to demonstrate their negotiating skills and argue thier cause?
