There is no question about it. It has to be BALPA.

In any reputable company that has recognised BALPA under a collective bargaining agreement, an individual will not be able to effectively represent themselves. In an ideal world we would not need unions, Policemen or insurance! But we don't live in an ideal world. The only pilot groups in the UK that have decent working conditions and salaries are the ones that have BALPA representation.
