Non pilots are not worthless, at all. Indeed we are all needed in the team. However, it is the pilots who are hardest to replace & train and they have ultimate responsibilty for the aircraft and passengers, etc.
In Baby this ballot is not only for the good of the pilots but the cabin crew will also benefit as it is their sector pay that is alsobeing taxed more. They are even less able to afford a bigger tax bill. Hopefully all BMI staff will be better off as we show management that they have to respect ALL staff.
