Still it must save on printer toner cartridges by issuing blank sheets of paper for rosters!

I'm afraid I can't take a positive view on this sale from my own perspective. As someone who currently enjoys flying a 146, I don't relish the prospect of flying the "fuel efficient and environmentally friendly" Dash 8.
Hi SV,

yes I do, although I'm not management, just a line pilot.
The T&Cs have not been great this summer, to be frank we have had a disrupted summer at times; however the good news is that BALPA big Jim met Jim French on Monday with senior managers and apparently a much more attractive deal is on its way to us - ballot papers and details are being sent to members this week. Don't have the new proposal details yet....................
