Re: BA pilots 'prepared to strike'
Flywheel. It's not about crewing aircraft, ultimately BALPA has to get 51% of BALPA members to vote for a strike. The fact is that BA now has 3 different pension schemes and about 100 guys leaving each year. You can do the sums and figure out how long it will take before new joiners are in the majority. BA has to do nothing but wait and promise that all pensions will be honoured for the next 10 years or so.
