You and others like you miss the point every time. Pilots work to rigid regulations with respect to flight time limitations. I appreciate the fact that someone who works in an office at Heathrow would feel they have the same right to a central car park pass but you have to acknowledge that whilst we might work for the same company we also work in DIFFERENT professions of which 'being a pilot' has the greatest number of regulations. Your post perpetuates the myth that pilots think they are a 'special' case. They aren't and they don't. I would support any working group who have the bXXls to stand up to their management and say enough is enough. Unless you are one of them? you should support them to - you might need them on your side one day.
