Disagree all you like - there are members at Regional on £900 a month take home and can accept 2.5% pay rise, remember selling days off for £500 per duty - try £85 - as crewing state when their desperate they cant operate the flight with out you whether it be cabin crew or pilots. Mortgages still need to be paid, families supported ect - earlier in the thread i was 100% in agreement but now totally against your actions as the comments stated earlier (no one is as good as you - attitude)
My advice to the bmi management would be - cut out the dead wood - slim the airline down to a profitable one and offer contracts to staff which at the end of the day pilots are (not airline owners) that understand you cant offer pay increases when losing money - i would have thought with all the investment for education that it would be easy to see!
