Klink

I don't expect that either but merely see it as yet another mechanism to try and get through the extremely thick skin of the VNV.

As an ex Air UK/KLMuk pilot I only wish somebody could have the courage to take KLM/VNV to the European Court as their actions over the last few years to their fellow EU workers has been deplorable.

Part of the problem is the weak UK employment laws (a similar case is the handling of Rover after the take over by BMW) but the treatment of the KLMuk pilots by KLM management has been very poor, mainly as a result of the pressure put on it by the VNV.
