Hi
Just a question but has anyone asked BALPA what they are doing about this situation. Surely it is their responsibility to represent all pilots fairly. If they are not willing to do anything then maybe all us unemployed ATPL pilots should start to mention it to them. This market is awful, the rich boys get and the workers dont. Just seen an add for companies to give pilots to airlines for free, what next. I am not giving up, I am getting angry. It is time that we all spoke out. The airlines do read these pages, so let them know how we feel.
As a side issue there must be pilots out there who know reporters. I am sure the press would love to hear about stories of airlines taking on pilots for free and not paying them. Really good for public image. It is time that we highlight this situation.
