Ok guys time to start looking out of the goldfish bowl & realize a few hard to swallow facts.
1 Joe public doesnt give a s*** about pilots, all he cares about is cheap travel from A to B
2 There is no point in rehashing this "He said/I said/didn't say" debate,as previously stated nobody cares.
3 joe Public would probably side with MOL if it came to public opinion( pilots work 18 hours a week etc) because MOL is a motormouth who plays the hard done by small buisnessman trying to get on who is being hounded by those big bad IALPA Unioin types.
4 Public opinion is not going to increase any FR pilots pay / decrease working hours / improve working conditions etc for the same reason as stated previously.
So basically it boils down to like it or lump it. either quit moaning & keep working for FR or get out & chase far away hills for greener pastures (Don't get me wrong, I am as anti FR as the next man).

Right thats my tuppence worth.Time to shut up now.
