A balanced view.

Hi Wiskey,

As you know there are two sides to every story. We are not out to screw anybody.

We are trying to look after the interests of our group as it is right now. A prime interest is being the only pilot group SAS negotiates with, which goes along with conserving our seniority list. These are two things that management would love to get the better of. With the help of any other pilot group who is willing to be used for this, mind you. Well, we will not let it happen. Instead we would prefer for other pilot groups to join us and thereby strengthen our pilot collective. This would benefit us all. And, as I have stated before, if you want to join a bigger group with more opportunities it will cost you. There is a price to be paid.

If, however, the other path is chosen the price will certainly be higher.

So, BU guys, come on. We would like to see you over on our side. As opposed to managements side. Remember, they don't like you anymore than they like us, they are merely using you to get at us.

Regards,

Ramrise
