Completely agree with F&B!

I´m also gonna vote NO, but I´m still very disappointed by the lack of guidance of BALPA regarding this.

In the past managment have proven to be a very untrustworthy negotiating partner (5-2-5-4 springs to mind...) so recommending this ´generous´ offer without even getting out their calculators has proved to be a huge blunder and incredibly naive!

I appreciate the hard work that the CC do, but it´s very unfortunate that they painted themselfs into this corner by recommending this deal without first having presented it to the members. If they would have done so, they would have saved themselfs a lot of work and embarrasment as hundreds of critical members see more potential loopholes/flaws than an overworked CC.

They could have let their members do a lot of number crunching work for them and at the same time improve the communication towards it´s members in doing so.
